VALZEO Showcased at CEDIS3 Event in Türkiye: Driving Circular Economy Through Zeolite Innovation
Ankara, May 29, 2025 — The VALZEO project, a Horizon Europe initiative focused on the valorisation of agro-industrial waste through zeolite-based composite materials, was featured during the CEDIS3 International Partnerships Workshop & Matchmaking Event in Ankara, Türkiye.
Held on May 29–30 and hosted by the Ministry of Industry and Technology of Türkiye, the event brought together key innovation actors and development agencies to strengthen international collaboration under the Smart Specialisation Strategies (S3) framework.
VALZEO was represented by Sustainable Innovation Technology Services (SITES), which leads the project’s Communication and Dissemination Work Package. During the event’s expert panel and poster sessions, SITES presented VALZEO’s mission:
✔️ To transform agro-industrial residues into high-value zeolite-based materials
✔️ To enable applications in environmental remediation (e.g., water and soil treatment)
✔️ To contribute to sustainable biofuel production pathways
✔️ To reinforce circular economy innovation across Europe
VALZEO offers a practical and scalable approach to regional sustainability by connecting agricultural waste management with environmental and energy solutions. The project’s alignment with S3 goals was well received by participants from Turkish development agencies, European innovation hubs, and funding institutions.
Participation in CEDIS3 opens up new avenues for transnational cooperation and validates VALZEO’s relevance in green transition strategies and industrial symbiosis.
