A national research programme involving 120 research laboratories, the aim is to work on the obstacles to the development of recycling in France. The Household Waste axis is particularly interested in sorting processes, the relationship with waste and environmental inequalities in relation to household waste. Research will begin in the first part of this area (to work on inequalities) and will continue in the second part (to work on the textile sector).

The aim of this project is to develop training in the field of waste, reuse, recycling and rudology at the University of Le Mans, in partnership with the Fédération des Entreprises du Réemploi et du Recyclage (FEDERREC). It also involves developing and bringing to life the Rudologie totem site as an experimental platform for the project.
