Formaldehyde free Bio-Based thermosetting resin for wood pressed products (ECOPRESSWOOD)
Date du début: 1 mars 2014, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2017,
"Pressed wood panels are composed of chopped or cut wood that are glued together using adhesives. Most of these resins are petroleum based products containing a hazardous chemical: formaldehyde. The acceptable levels of formaldehyde in wood pressed products have been reduced over the past decades due to increased public awareness on its effects on health and the consequent consumer demand for non- ...

INNOVATIVE POPLAR LOW DENSITY STRUCTURAL PANEL (I-PAN)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2012, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2015,
The I-PAN project aims to design a breakthrough wood-made lightweight panel, adopting 50% of its volume recycled wood and for the remaining 50% poplar wood by using the upper part of the tree that is commonly underused. To this purpose, a novel manufacturing process is designed and innovation to existing resins is defined in order to require less energy during the drying and pressing process, mini ...

Biomass based energy intermediates boosting biofuel production (BIOBOOST)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 30 juin 2015,
Increasing the share of biomass for renewable energy in Europe demands conversion pathways which are economic, flexible in feedstock and energy efficient. The BioBoost project concentrates on dry and wet residual biomass and wastes as feedstock for de-central conversion by fast pyrolysis, catalytic pyrolysis and hydrothermal carbonisation to the intermediate energy carriers oil, coal or slurry. Ba ...

An Innovative, environmentally friendly CO2/Lubricant Absorption Power System for Highly efficient Power Generation from Low Temperature industrial waste heat to reduce emissions and costs (ICARUS)
Date du début: 1 août 2012, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2014,
The EU manufacturing sector is vitally important to the EU economy, contributing ~17.1% of GDP and accounted for some 22 million jobs (2007) . EU exports have expanded by 4.7% p.a. over 2000-2008 and in some sectors the EU has increased its share of world exports between 1996 and 2006, notably in chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and motor vehicles. SMEs represent 99% of the EU manufacturing sector equa ...

Biocommodity refinery (BIOCORE)
Date du début: 1 mars 2010, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2014,
"BIOCORE will create and demonstrate create a lignocellulosic biorefinery for sustainable processing of agricultural residues (wheat and rice straws), SRC wood (poplar) and hardwood forestry residues, into 2G biofuels, bulk chemicals, polymers, speciality molecules, heat and power. To reach this overall objective, BIOCORE will: 1) Describe how a mixed lignocellulosic feedstock-based biorefinery ca ...

Developing advanced Biorefinery schemes for integration into existing oil production/transesterification plants (SUSTOIL)
Date du début: 1 juin 2008, Date de fin: 31 mai 2010,
"An ambitious and achievable vision for 2030 is that up to 25% of the EU’s transport fuel needs could be meet by clean and CO2-efficient biofuel. To achieve this, it will be necessary to promote the transition towards “second generation biofuels” (e.g. lignocellulosic ethanol, syngas gas based fuels, pyrolysis oil based biofuels) but also support the implementation of currently available biofuels ...
