DOYOUKNOWBioSupPack #3
What does BioSupPack aim to achieve?
– Increase the use of renewable resources (e.g., beer spent grains) for PHA formulations up to 85%🍺
– Crafte a highly-performing PHA-based rigid packaging with properties similar to those of conventional petrochemical plastics present in the market
– Upscale the production of novel PHA-based products to a demonstration level
– Integrate the plasma technology throughout the value chain for the pre-treatment of brew spent grains, packaging treatment and finally, for the pre-treatment of packaging waste
– Develop a system capable to identify and sort BioSupPack waste, with more than 90% of BioSupPack materials identified
– Ensure BioSupPack prototypes’ recyclability : Mechanical and enzymatic recycling processes to reintroduce materials in the production step and/or recover carbon sources for the fermentation process (>30% carbon source supply)
– Demonstrate the end-user validation and acceptance of the novel products
– Create a new value chain by managing both brewery and packaging waste flows
– Ensure the sustainability of the novel products and their compliance with European standards and legislation requirements 🇪🇺
– Maximize the impact after the end of the project by exploiting results.
