📣 We are very glad to announce that the #CBEJU proposal ♻ ReLEAF "Recycling Locally Produced Bio-Wastes to Ensure Affordability and Availability of Innovative Bio-Based Fertilisers" has been funded! 🖥️ The consortium is coordinated by Leitat Technological Center and counts on 17 experienced partners including RTOs and universities (Alma Mater Studiorum – Università di Bologna, RITTMO Agroenvironnement®, Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, #NOVA, Uniwersytet Rolniczy im. Hugona Kołłątaja w Krakowie, Research Institute of Organic Agriculture FiBL, ISQ), non-profit organisations (European Federation of Food Science and Technology, alchemia-nova #research and innovation), SMEs (#Ecopesce, AERIS Tecnologias Ambientales SL, Tecnopackaging), and large enterprises (Global Omnium, ANECOOP S. COOP, Timac Agro Italia S.p.A.) ℹ️ About the Project: The ReLEAF project is based on the advancement and widespread demonstration (in 5 technology demonstration sites) of a suite of extraction techniques to produce key BBF ingredients from waste streams prevalent across Europe – sewage sludge, fish processing waste and wastewater, mixed food waste, and agri-food residues. The formulation and production (in 2 sites) of cost-effective BBFs will address the serious issues of externalities (i.e., dependency on foreign supply chains (P and K), and petroleum-based resources (N)) from fertiliser production and use in European soils together with security of supply and waste valorisation. Investigations of the effectiveness and replicability of the BBFs within the varying climate conditions and soil ecosystems of 4 different field demonstration sites, in addition to co-creation activities, will allow for regional engagement with stakeholders to promote widespread acceptance, while industrial involvement will facilitate a rapid scale up and industrialisation of proposed technologies. ➡️ The project will start on 1st June. Stay tuned! #Fertilisers #Bio-Based #BIC #SoilHealth Xialei You #Fertilisers #Bio-Based #BIC #SoilHealth

Delighted to announce that I have taken on a mentorship role at Caligenia, a pioneering company dedicated to transforming organic waste into valuable soil amendments. Led by the visionary CEO Nicolas Barbarosch, Caligenia is at the forefront of agricultural biotechnology, creating sustainable solutions that enhance soil health and productivity. At Caligenia, we produce BACTERCHAR, an innovative product that combines ancestral soil amendment practices with the latest advancements in biotechnology. By enhancing the physical-chemical properties of the soil and boosting microbial activity, BACTERCHAR plays a crucial role in sustainable agriculture. Our team excels in developing Plant Growth Promoting Microorganisms (PGPMs) that colonize plant roots, improving growth and health by fixing atmospheric nitrogen, solubilizing nutrients, and producing bioactive compounds. These microorganisms are expertly combined with BACTERCHAR to maximize their efficacy in different agroecosystems. In addition, Caligenia is developing a sophisticated platform to predict how to rehabilitate degraded soils using the optimal combination of BACTERCHAR and PGPMs. This platform integrates various environmental and geographical data to propose tailored solutions for soil improvement. My mandate at Caligenia is international market expansion, leveraging my experience and network to bring these revolutionary agricultural solutions to a global audience. Looking forward to making a significant impact together! #Agriculture #Biotechnology #Sustainability #Mentorship #SoilHealth #Caligenia #Innovation #InternationalExpansion #EnvironmentalSolutions

From residue to raw material ♻ The bio-based economy, where by-products from harvest crops are turned into new raw materials, can give rural districts an economic boost. The BRILIAN project aims to develop new value chains from raw materials in Italy, Spain, and Denmark. In Danish agriculture, the focus is on rapeseed. – Danish farmers produce 400,000 tonnes of rapeseed annually, which is pressed into rapeseed oil. The by-product, the press cake, is currently used for animal feed. We have developed a process that makes it possible to extract a protein product from the press cake. This protein can then be processed into vegan protein for food and protein binders in glue, thereby achieving a higher life in the bioeconomy, says Angelica Tamayo Tenorio, Teknologisk Institut. Read more about the ambitions of BRILIAN: https://lnkd.in/dsE3n46M BRILIAN is a four-year Horizon Europe project with a budget of over six million euros, co-financed by Circular Bio-Based Europe (CBE). The project includes 13 institutes and companies from six different countries, including Denmark. Read more about the project: https://brilian.eu/ #biosolutions #bioeconomy #dkgreen #dkbiz

Joyn Bio Founded in September 2017, Joyn Bio was established as a joint venture by Bayer – a pharmaceutical and life science company – and Ginkgo Bioworks – an analytics company that produces their own microorganisms – to engineer plant microbes in order to solve the various sustainability issues within the agriculture sector. Aiming to engineer microbes that provide plants with biological nitrogen fertiliser, Joyn Bio subsequently reduces the amount of industrial nitrogen fertiliser; cutting greenhouse gas emissions by 3%, reducing water pollution and providing late-season nitrogen to crops. Their developments in sustainable agricultural biologicals for crop fertility and resilience profiles the company as a leader in sustainable ag tech. #agroinnovation #agriculture
