Boosting Lignocellulose Biomass Deconstruction with Designer Cellulosomes for Industrial Applications (CellulosomePlus)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2017,

The major bottleneck for plant biomass processing is fiber saccharification: the conversion of cell wall lignocellulosic biomass into fermentable sugars (en route to production of value-added chemicals like second generation biofuels). Some microbes enhance this step by using natural self-assembling proteinaceous nanocatalists known as cellulosomes. CellulosomePlus targets rational design of optim ...

Design and Manufacturing of Catalytic Membrane Reactors by developing new nano-architectured catalytic and selective membrane materials (DEMCAMER)

Start date: Jul 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

The DEMCAMER project proposes an answer to the paradigm met by the European Chemical Industry: increase the production rate while keeping the same products quality and reducing both production costs and environmental impacts. Through the implementation of a novel process intensification approach consisting on the combination of reaction and separation in a “Catalytic Membrane Reactor” single unit. ...

BIOfuel From Algae Technologies (BIOFAT)

Start date: May 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2015,

BIOFAT is a ‘microalgae to biofuel’ Demonstration project with a farming area of 10-ha for microalgae cultivation and a target annual productivity of 100 tons per ha. The project will integrate all the processes from single cell to biofuel production. The production stage will be based on photobioreactors for inocula production, and raceways for production of bulk biomass and induction of oil/star ...

Development of advanced BIOREFinery schemes to be INTEGrated into existing industrial fuel producing complexes (BIOREF-INTEG)

Start date: Jun 1, 2008, End date: May 31, 2010,

"The overall aim of BIOREF-INTEG is to develop advanced biorefinery schemes to be integrated into existing industrial fuel producing complexes. S&T project objectives are: to make the production of biofuels more competitive, to identify and develop the optimal integrated biorefinery schemes for the production of best suited ""building blocks"" in terms of processes and bioproducts, and to identify ...
