Outputs on roadside verges
Roadside verges are an important natural resource and as part of the Grassification project we surveyed road verge plants to understand the effects of cut and collection vs cut and leave of roadside grass clippings over time. We wanted to know more about the plants that were observed on the roadside verges (and other grassland and marginal land in the UK), and their contribution to biodiversity and ecosystem services. […]
Quantification of contaminants in road verge material
The Grassification project is aims to valorize roadside grass clippings. Project partners from several organisations have examined different commodities that may add value using the road verge vegetation. These products could, in turn, improve the circular economy by reducing waste and creating a marketable product. These products include food for insects, a source of energy for algae production, furniture, biofertilizers and a source of energy from waste via anaerobic digestion. […]

PROLIFIC: Mastering the up-scaling challenge
PROLIFIC extracts valuable compounds from agro-industrial side streams. Protein, polyphenols or fibres shall find future application in food, cosmetics, animal feed, or packaging. During the first two years of the project partners have developed and optimized different methods to extract compounds from peas, chickpeas, coffee green beans and various fungi feedstock. […]

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. […]
