Circular Aviation in the EU: SUSTAINair Final Conference

SUSTAINair, a project funded by the EU Horizon 2020 program, is at the forefront of revolutionizing aviation through its groundbreaking technologies and impactful solutions. SUSTAINair’s aim is to substantially increase the sustainability of the airframe value chain achieving a paradigm shift in aircraft manufacturing. The project’s solutions will bring significant benefits during production, operations, maintenance and EoL (end of life) aspects.

The final conference for the SUSTAINair project will be held on the11th and 12th of June, 2024, in Vienna, Austria. The conference will discuss advanced topics crucihttps://www.sustainair.eu/al to the future of aviation sustainability. Key themes include:

  • Circular Economy: Highlight the importance of the circular economy for essential aircraft materials, emphasizing sustainable practices in the aviation industry.
  • Life Cycle of Materials: Understanding the life cycle of materials, recycling processes, and waste reduction is key to fostering a circular approach that aligns with global environmental goals.
  • Smart Materials for Aircraft: Innovations in materials with unique properties aim to improve aircraft performance, durability, and environmental impact.
  • Innovative Aircraft Composition: Explore different methods that challenge traditional design and construction paradigms.
  • Digital Tools for Predictive Maintenance: As technology advances, digital tools enable more effective measures to be taken to combat wear and tear.
  • Structural Health Monitoring (SHM): New digital solutions for SHM, ensuring the longevity and safety of aircraft components.
