"The ambition of this project is significant. MDF has been produced since the 1960s and yet it remains the only wood based product that is currently unrecyclable. The most sustainable outcome for the UK's estimated circa 400k tons p.a. of MDF waste today is incineration with energy recovery. However, MDF Recovery is a transformational technology that converts a costly and problematic waste stream into a high value natural fibre raw material. This project is also highly ambitious in that it seeks to introduce an innovative approach that supports the concept of circularity in relation to the treatment of MDF at the end of its first user life.A succesful outcome to this project would result in full validation of the MDFR technology in a commercial environment. The demand for the technology is apparent, both in the UK and further afield. The deliverables produced during this work would allow for rapid uptake and exploitation of the technology in the UK. The last remaining technical and commercial barriers would be overcome and the world's first commercial scale recycling of medium density fibreboard would take place in the UK by 2021\."

“这个项目的雄心是巨大的。自20世纪60年代以来，它一直在生产，但它仍然是目前唯一不可回收的木质产品。对于英国每年约40万吨的估计产量来说，今天的垃圾焚烧是能源回收。然而，纤维回收是一种转型技术，可以将昂贵且有问题的废物流转化为高价值的天然纤维原料。该项目也非常雄心勃勃，因为它试图引入一种创新方法，支持在其第一个用户生命周期结束时处理循环的概念。该项目的成功结果将导致MDFR技术在商业环境中的全面验证。无论是在英国还是更远的地方，对这项技术的需求都是显而易见的。在这项工作中产生的可交付成果将允许在英国快速吸收和利用该技术。最后剩下的技术和商业障碍将被克服，到2021年，世界上第一个商业规模的中密度纤维板回收将在英国进行。"
