Bio4Products

Demonstrating a flexible value chain to utilize biomass functionalities in the processing industry

Challenge: In daily life we are surrounded by products made of fossil raw materials. Society needs to find new ways to unlock the hidden potential of renewable raw materials.

Solution: The Bio4Products project is testing the feasibility of a pyrolysis based biorefinery concept. Using this process a wide range of biomass can be converted into intermediate processing streams to replace fossil resources. The project will demonstrate the integration of these sustainable resources into four end products: phenolic resins, insulation foams, sand moulding resins, and modified wood.

Duration: September 2016 – June 2021
