Waste2Aromatics Project Focuses on Bio-aromatics Production

摘要

A CONSORTIUM of 12 companies has been focusing to convert waste into valuable raw materials for the chemical industry. To produce bio-aromatics from biodegradable waste, the cellulose present in the organic fraction must be converted into furans. Biodegradable waste, nappies, compost and sieving material from wastewater will be converted to aromatic compounds, such as those used in the production of plastics. The innovative Waste2Aromatics project, from the Biorizon Shared Research Centre, will bring the commercial production of cost-competitive bio-aromatics, along with the circular economy, significantly closer.
