EU Support for Bio-based Pest Control in Food Production
Approximately 40% of the world’s food crops are lost each year due to pests and diseases. The Borregaard-initiated project CROPSAFE has received €4.9 million in funding from the EU’s Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking (CBE JU) to develop bio-based solutions for pest control in potatoes, tomatoes and bananas

Biorizon teams up with Kaneka to create a sustainable premium polymer
Researchers from Biorizon co-initiator VITO and chemical company Kaneka Belgium joined forces to conduct research to create a lignin-based polymer that outperformed its fossil-based counterpart in terms of thermal stability and UV-blocking properties
Carbon capture and utilisation technologies are solutions to reduce CO2 emissions and move away from fossil resources
CCU is a broad term that covers processes that aim at capturing CO2 from flue gas or directly from the air and converting it into a variety of products such as renewable fuels, chemicals, and materials
Umschwung für die chemische Industrie: VIVALDI verwandelt CO2-Emissionen in nachhaltige Bioprodukte
Die Europäische Union hat 7 Millionen Euro für das VIVALDI-Projekt bewilligt, um die biobasierte Industrie in einen neuen, umweltfreundlicheren und wettbewerbsfähigeren Sektor zu verwandeln. Die BOKU erhielt dabei den zweitgrößten Anteil am Projektvolumen
VITO optimises CO2 conversion in the European-funded BioRECO2VER project
Industrial point sources of CO2 are well suited for carbon capture & utilisation applications, in short CCU. The conversion of greenhouse gases into added value (base) chemicals can take place in biological processes. With a brand new, unique high-pressure fermenter, VITO is researching how these processes can be optimised.
Chemicals and Materials for the Future: Renewable Materials Conference 2021 – Final Program
Which renewable materials are solutions that meet the needs of future societies? As a response to this challenging question, nova-Institute has decided to unite all relevant industries in the new “Renewable Materials Conference”, May 18–20, 2021, featuring a unique concept to present all renewable material solutions at one event: bio-based, CO2-based and recycled.
Doctoral student of the BioRECO2VER project wins the Green Talents Award from the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research!
Laura Rovira Alsina is doctoral student in Water Science and Technology from University of Girona (Spain) and is working in the EU-funded BioRECO2VER project focusing on bio-electrochemical systems for the conversion of CO2 into chemical building blocks under thermophilic conditions.
A Dutch consortium led by Vertoro has been granted €1.2 million to investigate the potential of crude lignin oil as a platform for sustainable chemicals and materials
New project to focus on the further development of an interregional campus eco-system and for the conversion of biomass residues to crude lignin oil
