R&D - Project

IASIS Ongoing

Curing contaminated & saline land with Industrial crops & producing biomass for high value sectors

ASIS uses phytomanagement to restore contaminated and saline land by growing non-food crops and converting biomass into sustainable bio-based products through cascading biorefineries.

4Sir2 Ongoing

Activate protective genes against childhood obesity

4Sir2 Smoothy develops a functional drink based on grape or apple juice, enriched with natural compounds derived from viticultural by-products.

LIKE A PRO Ongoing

Alternative proteins, for everyone and everywhere

LIKE-A-PRO facilitates access to alternative proteins—plant-based, fermentation-derived, or cell-cultured—for a healthier, more sustainable, and tastier diet.

FOODWAL Ongoing

Stimulating Food Innovation in Wallonia

Peptiboost & Proteboost develop sustainable and industrializable approaches to produce and characterize bioactive peptides and proteins, improving the quality of food products.

BIORELEACIDE Ongoing

Bio-based capsules for the controlled release of pesticides.

The main objective of the BIORELEACIDE project is the development of bio-based formulations with different controlled release rates of phytosanitary agents.

HALOTEX Ongoing

To be completed

Halophyte biorefinery for sustainable production of textiles, composites, and biochemicals.

SUSAAN Completed

Development of antimicrobial and antiviral nano-coatings

The SUSAAN project is developing sustainable antimicrobial coatings for textiles and high-use surfaces, involving the textile, bathroom and switch sectors.

VALORBSY Completed

Brewery yeast valorized for nutritional ingredients as alternatives to animal proteins

The ValorBSY project aims for the sustainable valorization of residual yeast from craft breweries for the agri-food industry, combining collection technologies, targeted extraction, and the creation of new products.

SLUDGE2BBI Ongoing

Production of PHAs for bio-based chemistry from sewage sludge and organic materials

Development of PHA extraction technologies from sewage sludge to produce biodegradable, bio-based building blocks for green chemistry.

SAFE Ongoing

Sustainable bioeconomy: aquaculture, biodiversity, biotechnology, and integrated freshwater uses.

The SAFE project aims to make aquaculture more sustainable by valorizing solid and liquid waste from recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) through circular economy approaches.
