BIOFACE - BIOMOLECULES FROM THE INTEGRATED UTILISATION OF AGRO-FOOD BY-PRODUCTS FOR SUSTAINABLE PHYTOSANITARY, FOOD AND ENERGY APPLICATIONS

The project is intended to be a driving force and technological innovation tool for the valorisation of by-products of the agro-food chain for the production of substances with high added value (second-generation valorisation) with spin-offs in the phytosanitary and food context (nutraceuticals and ingredients) by exploiting low environmental impact technologies. With a view to an integrated strategy for the valorisation of by-products in the agro-food sector, the project also proposes the complete characterisation of extraction residues for their effective addressing to the energy sector (first-generation valorisation).
