GENESIS, backed by Horizon Europe, aims to make semiconductor manufacturing sustainable, aligning with the European Green
Deal, by minimizing environmental impact with eco-friendly innovations. [Objectives] GENESIS aims to replace harmful materials
with safer options, improve waste management, and enhance the use and recyclability of scarce materials. [Innovations] GENESIS
introduces innovations in three key areas: • Innovative materials: PFAS-free polymer and eco-friendly gas alternatives complying with
EU regulations. • Waste & emissions monitoring: Cutting-edge sensors detect hazardous substances for efficient aqueous and gas waste
elimination, reducing environmental and health risks. • Scarce material management: New integration technologies optimize material
usage and initiate recycling of scarce materials like Gallium, Niobium, and silicon carbide. [Methodology] GENESIS employs four
technical work packages to research sustainable material substitution, emission reduction, and resource management. This modular
approach promotes scalability and integration with existing processes, fostering a circular economy in the semiconductor sector.
Supervised by management work packages, it quantifies environmental efficiency and engages in dissemination to promote European
technological achievements [Outcomes] The project targets a 50% cut in hazardous materials, 30% decrease in emissions and waste,
and improved scarce material recyclability, boosting EU semiconductor sustainability and global competitiveness. [Impact] GENESIS
supports EU's tech sovereignty and resilience through accurate monitoring and sustainable practices. It positions Europe as a leader in
sustainable semiconductor tech, setting new standards for impact-oriented communication and dissemination
