nova-Institute
nova-Institut GmbH has been working in the field of sustainability since the mid-1990s and today focuses primarily on the areas of circular economy, bioeconomy and CO2 utilisation.
The independent company supports the chemical and plastics industries in the transition from fossil to renewable carbon – based on biomass, CO2 utilisation or recycling – through research and science-based consulting.
Both in accompanying research for innovation projects and in individual business consulting, nova’s interdisciplinary team covers the entire value chain. It works on all topics from raw materials, technology scouting and market research to economics, policy, life cycle assessments and sustainability, as well as support in communication and strategy development.
50 experts from different fields work together to defossilise the industry and create a climate-neutral future.
Renewable Carbon
What is renewable carbon?
Renewable Carbon entails all carbon sources that avoid or substitute the use of any additional fossil carbon from the geosphere. Renewable carbon can come from the biosphere, atmosphere or technosphere – but not from the geosphere. Renewable carbon circulates between biosphere, atmosphere or technosphere, creating a carbon circular economy.
How does it differ from the bioeconomy and circular economy? This page provides a definition and background on the renewable carbon strategy and why it is relevant to you.
Renewable Carbon Events
nova-Institute hosts workshops and conferences, big and small, for an expert audience. Some related to our research projects, some as stand-alone events. Most notable the Renewable Materials Conference (www.renewable-materials.eu), International Conference on Cellulose Fibres (www.cellulose-fibres.eu), Conference on CO2-based Fuels and Chemicals (www.co2-chemistry.eu) and the nova Sessions, a series of workshops on pressing political issues and market developments. On this website, you can find all upcoming events.
Renewable Carbon Publications
nova-Institute is not only part of many research projects putting out valuable information on bio-based and CO2-based chemicals, building blocks, polymers and materials as well as chemical recycling topics, we also publish additional reports and background papers on policy, markets & trends as well as technologies around the renewable circular economy.
Renewable Carbon Graphics
We firmly believe in making knowledge accessible: not only offer we free reports to spread the knowledge on renewable carbon-related topics but supplements the written word with attractive graphics free for non-commercial use to inform the research and industrial community as well as educate the public.
Renewable Carbon News
Relevant press releases, interviews and general news keep you informed about the latest innovations, inventions, investments and developments in bioeconomy, industrial biotechnology, bio-based chemistry and materials, CO2-based materials, Carbon Capture & Utilisation (CCU) and Power-to-X industries as well as chemical recycling.
