R&D - Project

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.

PHENIX – FOODBOOSTER Ongoing

Analytical and technological platforms for the development of prebiotics and probiotics

FoodBooster aims to develop prebiotic ingredients rich in fructo-oligosaccharides using gentle processing methods.

BEFRESH Completed

Gentle technologies for the sustainable stabilization of high value-added carbonated beverages.

The BeFresh project develops high-pressure processing and sustainable packaging to stabilize natural carbonated beverages without preservatives, while preserving their quality.

HEMICOAT Ongoing

Conversion of Hemicelluloses into Coatings

Valorization of hemicelluloses from lignocellulosic biomass through extraction and fermentation for the production of bio-based compounds used in the manufacture of coatings, adhesives, and surfactants.

YARUP Completed

Yacon syrup as a new prebiotic-rich alternative to sugar

YaRup aims to offer a new natural alternative to sugar by transforming yacon tubers into a syrup with high nutritional value, rich in prebiotics and with good organoleptic properties.
