The EU's long-term strategy, ‘A Clean Planet for All’, is underpinned by a bioeconomy, with biorefineries playing an important role. Aiming to contribute to this strategy, the ZEOBIOCHEM project will develop novel functionalised hierarchical zeolites for highly-efficient biorefinery catalysis, supporting the EU’s grand vision to achieve a climate neutral Europe by 2050. The project will be carried out by an internationally-leading multidisciplinary consortium with a complementary expertise in materials chemistry, heterogeneous catalysis, process intensification, biomass conversion and life cycle sustainability assessment.
The research and innovation (R&I) activities will be performed collaboratively beyond the state-of-the-art by world-leading groups in relevant fields from the UK, Spain, Denmark, Hungary, China, Japan and Thailand. These activities will be facilitated by the international and intersectoral staff exchanges involving 200 person-months, to enable the development of the next-generation biorefinery based on highly-efficient zeolite catalysts. Specifically, the project will develop hierarchical zeolites with optimised functionality (Brønsted, Lewis acidity and/or noble metal catalysts) for the biorefinery cases, such as bio-oil and sugar platforms upgrading and green solvent synthesis. To deliver the project outputs successfully, multidisciplinary expertise is essential. Thus, a high-quality and cross-disciplinary knowledge sharing and networking activities between the project partners will be established to address the R&I activities.
The project includes extensive training, knowledge transfer and networking activities which will (i) ensure the development of our researchers with multidisciplinary skills for the future innovation, (ii) enhance the career development of the participants and (iii) maximise the opportunity to establish new networks and strengthen the existing networks, towards the sustainable development of the ZEOBIOCHEM partnership.
Are you the coordinator (or a participant) of this project? Plaese send me more information about the "ZEOBIOCHEM" project.
For instance: the website url (it has not provided by EU-opendata yet), the logo, a more detailed description of the project (in plain text as a rtf file or a word file), some pictures (as picture files, not embedded into any word file), twitter account, linkedin page, etc.
Send me an email (fabio@fabiodisconzi.com) and I put them in your project's page as son as possible.
Thanks. And then put a link of this page into your project's website.
