MUDP's Focus Areas and Themes 

MUDP supports projects that address some of Denmark’s most pressing environmental and climate challenges. The MUDP programme focuses on technologies and solutions that can accelerate the green transition, strengthen the circular economy and improve environmental protection across sectors.

Below are the key themes prioritised by MUDP:

1. Circular economy and sustainable resource use

Reuse and recycling of plastics, textiles, and construction materials as well as the development of bio-based materials, low-emission products, and environmentally friendly packaging.

2. Water and wastewater

Technologies for purification, reuse and efficient water management (e.g., removal of PFAS, micropollutants, and wastewater treatment).

3. Air pollution and emissions

Solutions that reduce emissions of particles, NOx (nitrogen oixides), and VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) (e.g., reducing ultrafine particles from wood stoves, transport, and airports).Løsninger der reducerer udledning af partikler, NOx og VOC’er. (ex. reduktion af ultrafine partikler fra brændeovne, transport og lufthavne).

4. Jordforurening og miljøfarlige stoffer

Oprensning af forurenet jord og substitution af skadelige kemikalier.

5. Biodiversitet og natur

Teknologier og digitale værktøjer til overvågning og forbedring af økosystemer og havmiljø.

6. Klimatilpasning og naturbaserede løsninger

Teknologier der styrker naturens modstandskraft og reducerer klimapåvirkninger. (ex. klimaeffektiv recirkulering af vand, forebyggelse af oversvømmelser, tilpasning til tørke).

7. Tværgående tema: Data og digitalisering                                                                                        

Brug af data, IoT og AI til at dokumentere og optimere miljøeffekt.
