Model2Bio

As we are wrapping up our remarkable journey, we're thrilled to share some results of the Model2Bio project.   Here are the highlights of our incredible endeavor:   📄 White Paper: explore our comprehensive white paper that shines a spotlight on some of Europe's most prominent agri-food by-products. It highlights innovative treatments and value chains. 👉 https://lnkd.in/d7VhYmsh   📗 Best practice flipbook: provides a succinct overview of our project. Whether you're involved in food production, a bio-industry scientist, or a policy maker this might be of interest for you! 👉 https://lnkd.in/eFP7gPxz   🎥 Final Video: Millions of tonnes of potato peels and other production residues are generated annually during food processing. They're typically used as animal feed or left to decompose in landfills, emitting greenhouse gases. But there's so much more we can do with them! Our project has developed a decision-support system to identify the most economic and environmentally friendly reuse options 👉 https://lnkd.in/dm6tcP53   🌍 Infopacks about food loss and the Model2Bio project translated in different languages: English, Spanish, Dutch and Greek 👉 https://lnkd.in/eEynpe9t   📹 Final Conference Recording: relive the insightful discussions and presentations from our last conference. This event brought together food producers, waste managers, bio-based industries, academics, and politicians. Together, they explored the transition of the agri-food sector towards a circular bioeconomy, with panel discussions and presentations from companies and research projects, including ORLOGA, S.A., Algaloop, ONDOAN, Ingredalia S.L., the B-Resilient, Okin, and CHORIZOproject 👉https://lnkd.in/dmxfQVxi At our last meeting in San Sebastián, we shared a joint emotion: It is a happy and a sad phase when a project comes to an end. The Model2Bio project has been an incredible journey for us and it is great to see that many people are interested in our work. Together with many other research projects, we're contributing to a more sustainable and innovative future in the agri-food industry. These projects include: OLEAF4VALUE, HOOP Project, FOODRUS #H2020 Project , Wasteless, ALIGNED project, B-Resilient, BIOBESTicide Project , INFORMBIO, MainstreamBIO Project, Micro4Biogas, MixMatters, BioBeo EU, Brilian   #CircularBioeconomy #Sustainability #AgriFood #Residues #FoodIndustry #FoodLoss #WasteManagement Ceit Research Center, Ctic Cita, Tecnun - Universidad de Navarra, Wageningen University & Research, Celabor scrl, CluBE-Cluster of Bioeconomy and Environment of Western Macedonia, FOOD+i - Cluster Alimentario del Valle del Ebro, Flanders' FOOD, Global Factor, ESCI - European Science Communication Institute , DIADYMA SA

Several tens of millions of tonnes are thrown away every year in the European Union alone; 58.5 million according to the European Commission. 🥕 🥔 🥖 About 17 % is lost in the agri-food industry during production and processing. These agri-food residues can serve as a resource to generate energy, chemicals or components for food, feed and materials. Our project has created a booklet 👉 https://lnkd.in/eFP7gPxz where we: -Share tips for the reuse of agri-food residues -Show the potential of potato peels, grape pomace, cheese whey and brewer’s spent grain -Present 10 different value chains, which together yield 10 different products recommend policy implementations #agrifood #agrifoodresidue #valorisation #byproducts #foodloss #foodwaste #foodwastereduction

🗣️Your Voice Matters! Take the O4V Survey! 📰 This survey aims to collect consumer perspectives on #biobased products. The results obtained will guide the partners of the OLEAF4VALUE🌿 project when developing new #biobased products. 📌https://lnkd.in/gF4Ab-n5
