Having commenced operations at the end of August, the pilot plant represents a significant milestone in the fight against climate change and plastic pollution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Quote from the <strong>Hessian Minister of Economics the Honourable Mr Kaweh Mansoori<\/strong> &#8211; \u201cToday marks an important step for CO2BioClean and is an impressive demonstration of what is possible when science, innovation and entrepreneurship go hand in hand. It is impressive to see a technology using CO<sub>2<\/sub> as a raw material to produce biodegradable plastics. This is a revolutionary approach that addresses two global challenges: climate change and plastic pollution. As Hessian Minister of Economics, I am particularly proud that this ground-breaking project is being realized here.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Quote from <strong>Dr. Fabiana Fantinel CEO CO2BIOCLEAN GMBH <\/strong>&#8211; &#8220;I wish to thank the State of Hesse for believing in our project and supporting it, along with the investors who have funded this plant. We are very pleased to have found ideal conditions here in Frankfurt to bring our project from the lab to reality. None of this would have been possible without our investors, our key partners, and without the great efforts of our incredible team working hard to achieve this result on time and on budget.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday 14th October, State Minister of Economic Affairs, Transport and Housing of the Government of Hesse, the Honourable Mr Kaweh Mansoori, joined company founders Dr Fabiana Fantinel and Dr Alessandro Carfagnini to celebrate the Grand Opening of the breakthough CO2Bioclean pilot plant in Industriepark H\u00f6chst, near Frankfurt, which offers a unique and innovative solution to [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":114,"featured_media":153156,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"none","nova_meta_subtitle":"Innovative fermentation technology unit transforms CO2 into biodegradable plastics","footnotes":""},"categories":[5571],"tags":[5838,5847,10744,10416,10408,10743],"supplier":[19762,9238,13887,22077],"class_list":["post-153154","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-co2-based","tag-bioeconomy","tag-bioplastics","tag-carboncapture","tag-circulareconomy","tag-greenchemistry","tag-useco2","supplier-co2-bioclean","supplier-hessisches-ministerium-wirtschaft","supplier-industriepark-hoechst","supplier-infraserv-gmbh-co-hochst-kg"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153154","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/114"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=153154"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153154\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/153156"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=153154"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=153154"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=153154"},{"taxonomy":"supplier","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/supplier?post=153154"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
