Description

O objetivo principal deste projeto, levado a cabo pelo consórcio entre a Sapec Química e a Universidade de Aveiro, consiste no desenvolvimento de um plastificante primário para PVC originado a partir de óleos vegetais, os quais são considerados recursos renováveis e agentes de crescimento sustentável. Com o cumprimento destes objetivos, prevê-se inovar em termos de oferta de plastificantes primários, competindo diretamente com a família de plastificantes que dominam o mercado, os ftalatos, obtidos a partir de recursos fósseis, os quais são classificados, em termos de saúde e de acordo com o regulamento REACH, como disruptores endócrinos ou agentes hormonais ativos, sendo, por isso, consideradas substâncias de elevada preocupação.Pretende-se com este projeto desenvolver metodologias inovadoras para o processamento e refinação de óleos vegetais e sua transformação em plastificantes.Para atingir estes objetivos, o projeto engloba as seguintes etapas:1- Estudos preliminares, 2- Medição de Propriedades, Cinética e Modelação e Subprodutos; 3- Ensaios Piloto; 4- Ensaios Industriais; 5- Estudos de Engenharia; 6- Estudo de Viabilidade Económica do Projeto; 7- Promoção e Divulgação de Resultados; 8- Gestão Técnica do Projeto.Assim, perspetiva-se a construção, em Portugal, de uma unidade de produção industrial de plastificantes, conduzindo a um efeito em cadeia de criação de postos de trabalho, sobretudo qualificado, contribuindo de forma pró-activa para a competitividade da empresa, da região onde esta se insere e, em última instância, do país, através do incremento elevado da taxa e do volume de exportações.
