Tex4Clear (Textile Innovation for the Sustainable Removal of Emerging Contaminants) is an ambitious collaborative R&D&I project whose main goal is to research and validate integrated, sustainable solutions to reduce at source, remove and detect the microplastics and PFAS generated by the textile industry.
The project combines new bio-based materials, biotechnology, advanced sensing and artificial intelligence, aiming to drive a cleaner, safer and more environmentally friendly textile industry.
Luce IT’s role in Tex4Clear
We bring our expertise in artificial intelligence and data processing to anticipate, track and reduce the pollution generated by the textile sector.
- Predictive Pollutant AI: Models that predict microplastic and PFAS pollution at the production source.
- Dispersion and Fate: AI and hydrodynamic techniques to understand how these pollutants spread in the environment.
- Scientific Generative AI: We automate learning from scientific databases to detect pollutants in wastewater.
Companies forming the Tex4Clear consortium
The consortium—led by LAURENTIA, together with LABAQUA, DARWIN, GEISA and Luce IT—lays the foundations for a textile industry free of emerging contaminants, contributing to a cleaner, safer and more sustainable production model.
Tex4Clear Research Partners
To achieve the goals of this ambitious project, leading technology centres such as the Technological Institute of Packaging, Transport and Logistics (ITENE), the Textile and Cosmetics Industry Research Association (AITEX) and the Technological Institute of Castilla y León (ITCL) will contribute their scientific knowledge and expertise in materials, textile analysis and artificial intelligence.
Project backed by the European Union
This project is funded by the Centre for the Development of Industrial Technology and Innovation, E.P.E. (CDTI) under the INNTERCONECTA-STEP 2025 programme. The initiative is also part of the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan, receiving co-funding from the European Union through NextGenerationEU funds, with the institutional support of the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities.
