Pilots4U
A key challenge for the bio-economy is to bring newly developed molecules and techniques from the lab to the market. The main bottleneck in the innovation chain is the step from technology development to deployment. This step has to be performed first in…
A new bioeconomy strategy to boost growth and investment in EU
“
normal">The bioeconomy can turn algae into fuel, recycle plastic, convert waste into new furniture or clothing or transform industrial by-products into bio-based fertilisers. It has the potential…
Phytosudoe
A network of contaminated and/or degraded field sites covering various pedo-climatic zones was established, and different phytomanagement options were implemented and monitored for improvements in soil quality and functionality. The project carried out…
SCALIBUR - Scalable Technologies for Bio-urban Waste Recovery
SCALIBUR will identify and develop best practices for selective collection, transport, sorting and pre-treatment, and characterisation of food waste and urban sewage sludge.
Partners will engage…
LEX4BIO
Phosphorus resources are finite, and production of nitrogen fertilisers is energy intensive, causing greenhouse gas emissions. In LEX4BIO, replacing mineral fertilisers with bio-based fertilizers (BBFs) within EU is evaluated by mapping…
VALUEWASTE
Every year each European citizen produces on average 200 kg of municipal biowaste. This means that between 118 and 138 million tonnes of biowaste arise annually in the EU.
The municipal biowaste management systems that currently exist in Europe, such as…
BIO4PRODUCTS
The innovative approach of Bio4Products is to apply a short thermal treatment (fast pyrolysis) at elevated temperature enabling the fractionation of the bio-resource, but keeping the key chemical functionalities in separate, depolymerised fractions.…
SYSTEMIC
Creation of a roadmap to facilitate solutions for biowaste in the EU.
SYSTEMIC recognizes Europe’s challenge to tackle the increasing resources constraint and to facilitate the transition towards a more circular economy (COM, 2015-614). SYSTEMIC…
