Very happy to start this new Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking (CBE JU) project! The Coordinator from Centre for Renewable Energy Sources and Saving (CRES) did a great organisation : among others, we visited farmers on really #polluted #lands and saw which limitations they have today for #phytoremediation. We are thrilled to the idea of applying #emerging #technologies in force at Celabor srl to produce novel #biobased intermediate #products from non-food #crops cultivated in #contaminated #soils. This approach on the #decontamination potential of 8 industrial #crops is a step forward in #phytomanagement strategy in Europe! Stay tuned for updates on the outcomes of this exciting project! https://lnkd.in/dAZf6g7p

💡November 5 & 6, Celabor srl was in Athens for the IASIS Kick off Meeting organised by Centre for Renewable Energy Sources and Saving (CRES)! It is officially the beginning of this CBE project about “curing contaminated and saline land with Industrial crops and producing biomass for high-value applications”. 🌍 This project gathers 16 full partners plus 1 associated partner and 1 affiliated partner (18 in total) from 7 EU countries with the objective of providing solutions for curing both #contaminated and #saline land through #phytomanagement. Selected high-yielding, non-food (industrial) crops will provide #biomass feedstock to develop intermediate and end bioproducts, following a cascading biorefinery approach, via economic-viable value chains. Celabor srl, represented by Job Tchoumtchoua and Emilie Stierlin, participates to this wonderful project as leader of WP3 (Added-value products and value-chains development) that aims to apply a cascading biorefinery approach to produce extracts from industrial crops (#oilseeds and #lignocellulosic) and their conversion into high-value products. The following steps will be carried out: contaminants determination, biomass extraction, development of intermediate products and development of final products. 🌱 ⚗️ This first in-person meeting was a real success! 👍 We are so happy to be part of a such great project! Thanks again to our partners from CRES for their hospitality during this meeting!

Celabor is proud to announce the beginning of the FUNBIOMAT project (Highly dispersible functionalized biobased fibers for advanced biopolyester materials). Cornet project (SPW, SPW Economie Emploi Recherche , German Aerospace Center (DLR)) Partners: Celabor srl, Materia Nova, Fraunhofer Institute for Process Engineering and Packaging IVV , Fraunhofer UMSICHT Coordinator: Celabor srl Duration: October 2024 – September 2026 Global warming, lack of resources, plastic waste and microplastic pollution are all key factors that highlight the need to find bio-based, recyclable and biodegradable alternatives to conventional petroleum-based plastics. Among them, polyester materials of natural origin are widely recognized as good candidates to meet this need. However, the main biopolyesters have poor thermal, mechanical and barrier properties for their use in very demanding applications. Improving the performance of these biopolymers, by using additives from natural sources, instead of mineral or fossil compounds, allows maintaining the low carbon footprint of the material. In this project, one of the main objectives will be to develop advanced methods for functionalizing bio-based additives in order to ensure an optimal distribution within biopolyester materials and to obtain a significant improvement in key properties (mechanical and barrier) that will open the door to their valorization in new specific applications. These developments will increase the potential commercialization of biopolyester-based products, which will be beneficial for biopolyester manufacturing industries and plastics processing companies. FUNBIOMAT's developments will also enable packaging companies to increase their market potential by offering new sustainable bioplastic solutions (100% bio-based, recyclable and biodegradable), suitable for most food products. #Biopolyester, #Polylactide, #Biobased, #Coating, #biocomposite, #Cellulosenanofiber, #Cellulosemicrofiber, #Oxygenbarrierproperties

Développer des produits vegans plus appétissants et plus sains - Le projet Protinnov, financé par le SPW Economie Emploi Recherche, s’est clôturé le mois dernier. Réalisé en partenariat avec le Fraunhofer Institute for Process Engineering and Packaging IVV et l’IVLV e.V., ce projet avait pour but d’étudier de nouvelles approches de fonctionnalisation des protéines de pois locales pour faciliter le développement de produits végétariens et vegans avec un meilleur profil nutritionnel et sensoriel. Les résultats obtenus sont prometteurs. L’approche de fonctionnalisation par procédés physiques (HPP hautes pressions hydrostatiques et HPH homogénéisation par hautes pressions) montre : ✅ Des améliorations spécifiques des propriétés fonctionnelles, en fonction du type de protéine et du procédé ; ✅ Aucun impact négatif observé sur la digestibilité ; ✅ Une diminution ponctuelle de l’amertume, à investiguer ; ✅ Des corrélations entre certaines propriétés fonctionnelles et la structure des protéines. 💡 Intéressé par le sujet ?
