Advanced Reconfigurability Leveraged on an Agentic-AI Framework Boosting Process Industries Flexibility and Efficiency
AGILE aims to revolutionise European process industries by delivering flexible, efficient and sustainable operations across energy-intensive production processes. The project combines advanced process redesign strategies, net-zero technologies, flexible energy systems and digital solutions to enable rapid adaptation to variable feedstocks, renewable energy availability and market demand.
The project will develop innovative technologies including melting-free solid-state roll bonding for copper recycling, waste heat recovery systems, electric pre-heating furnaces for ceramic production and modular electrolysis systems for green hydrogen production from treated wastewater. These technologies will be integrated with Asset Administration Shell-based digital twins, smart orchestration tools and agentic AI solutions to optimise resources, emissions and production planning.
AIMEN coordinates the project and leads the development of the digital infrastructure, smart orchestration framework and several AI-based solutions for feedstock and production optimisation. AIMEN is also responsible for overall project management and contributes to the industrial validation of AGILE technologies through pilot-scale demonstrations.
