PROLIFIC: New bio-based value chains from agro-industrial side-streams

PROLIFIC is a BBI JU funded research and innovation action. A consortium gathering 18 partners develops and applies new processes and technological solutions to transform agro-industrial residues into higher value products. Our cascading approach extracts proteins and bioactive molecules from legumes, fungi and coffee agro-industrial side-streams.

The project will deliver proteins, polyphenols, chitosan and fibres for applications in the food, animal feed, packaging and cosmetics sector

The composition of the project team reflects the full value chain: feedstock supply, extraction process development and up-scaling, extracts assessment and their utilisation in consumer products.
