For a fossil-free Western Swedish industrial region
Climate-leading Process Industry is a West Swedish initiative that strives towards a fossil-independent and competitive industrial region through project activities and knowledge dissemination. Behind the initiative are the members of the West Swedish Chemistry and Materials Cluster.
Focus Areas
Within our five focus areas, the work of initiating and running projects, knowledge transfer and networking develops.
Our projects
Climate-leading Process Industry finances collaborative projects to accelerate the transition towards a fossil-independent process industry in Västra Götaland.
The network for juniors in the chemical industry
For employees at member companies with up to five years of work experience in the industry
Potential for electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide into chemicals
What potential exists for sustainable production of chemicals through direct electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide? This has been investigated by the project "Electrochemical Reduction of CO2 to Chemicals," with the overarching goal of assessing the technology's potential for electrochemical manufacturing of chemicals as a future electrification/CCU (Carbon Capture and Utilization) alternative within the West Swedish chemical industry. We asked a couple of questions to the project leader, Elin Svensson from Chalmers Industriteknik.
Project activities within Climate-Leading Process Industry
Within Climate-Leading Process Industry, collaborative projects are funded to accelerate the transition towards a fossil-independent process industry in Västra Götaland. These projects have a pre-study character, intended to serve as a basis for significant industrial investments, stimulate the development of larger spin-off projects, and contribute to the goals set for the Climate-Leading Process Industry initiative.
Recycled tires will be part of future fuels
Discarded tires will now be used as raw material for fuel on a large scale. This follows an agreement between two members of the West Swedish Chemical and Material Cluster, Preem and Scandinavian Enviro Systems. Representatives from both companies highlight the cluster as an important arena for new collaborations.
