Direct and indirect biorefinery technologies for conversion of organic side-streams into multiple marketable products (InDIRECT)
Start date: Nov 1, 2016, End date: Oct 31, 2019,
The aim of the proposal is to develop biorefinery processes as part of new value chains to convert under-spent side streams/residues from the agro-sector and processing sector into useful marketable products. Cascading processes (recovery of multiple compounds from the same feedstock) are envisioned to increase the conversion efficiency (product/ton biomass input) and maximise the values of the fe ...

Camelina & crambe Oil crops as Sources for Medium-chain Oils for Specialty oleochemicals (COSMOS)
Start date: Mar 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2019,
The COSMOS proposal aims to reduce Europe’s dependence on imported coconut and palm kernel oils and fatty acids and castor oil as sources for medium-chain fatty acids (MCFA, C10–C14) and medium-chain polymer building blocks. These are needed by the oleochemical industry for the production of plastics, surfactants, detergents, lubricants, plasticisers and other products. In COSMOS, camelina and cra ...
