Biomass and waste valorizing technologies
In a circular economy era biomass and waste processing technologies for sustainable production of chemicals and fuels are of high importance. Processes are developed and tested initially at laboratory scale and then at pilot scale. Research work is performed in:
- Reactor fermentations
- Anaerobic digestion
- Industrial and municipal wastewater valorization
- Waste plastic depolymerization and monomers purification
- Equipment design for pre-treatment of biomass
- Upstream and downstream processing of biomass effluents
- Up-scaling of biotechnological processes
- Mathematical simulation of bioprocesses
