BIOcomposites in smart plastic transformation processes, to pave the way for the UPTAKE of sustainable biobased products
About us
The general objective of Bio-Uptake project is to ensure a sustainable uptake (increase the use in a 39%) of bioplastic composites through boosting a twin green and digital transformation in the European manufacturing industry. Bio-Uptake solution will focus scientific and technology efforts on developing flexible manufacturing processes to produce biobased end-products for the construction, medical and packaging sectors based on the combination of intermediate formats made of natural and/or biobased synthetic fibers reinforced with biopolymers, which are easily adaptable to new market demands.

🍃 #meetBIOMATTERS 🍃 Over the next few weeks the #BIOMATTERS cluster would like to introduce you to our sister projects funded under by the Horizon Europe call “Manufacturing technologies for bio-based materials”. First up is 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗪𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁 ... 🌳 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝘀𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 & 𝗰𝗶𝗿𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗺𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗜𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲, 𝗯𝗶𝗼𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘂𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀 🌳 The objective of NewWave is to transform existing fossil-based manufacturing lines into new biobased manufacturing lines. The bio-based products must exhibit similar, or better, mechanical, physical, and chemical properties compared to the existing products, and must be non-toxic and recyclable. The Manufacturing Lines developed in the NewWave project will ensure these qualities. #circulareconomy #bioeconomy #materials #polymers #biobased #woodproducts #horizoneurope #NewWave https://lnkd.in/eG3fmsWd

📆 We continue our journey through the past month with the presentation of the 𝐁𝐈𝐎𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒 Cluster at the S3, in Alessandria (Italy). What is 𝐁𝐈𝐎𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒? This is a cluster of 6 European projects, namely AMBIANCE Project, Waste2BioComp VITAL Project New Wave project BIO-UPTAKE and Horizon EU Green-Loop, united under the common aim of making sustainable processes and products a norm in the EU. We share a vision of providing a viable alternative to conventional materials by introducing novel materials and cutting-edge manufacturing techniques. As a collective, we aim to spotlight and address today's pressing challenges, using bio-based materials to generate innovative solutions. Thanks to everyone who participated to such an inspiring event and especially to AMBIANCE Project, Waste2BioComp and Horizon EU Green-Loop, our sister projects in this cluster, who where there with us. Let’s continue working together to lead the way in bio-based innovation! 🔎 #BIOUPTAKE Website: https://lnkd.in/eg6_wNju 👉 #BIOUPTAKE Consortium: Aitiip Centro Tecnológico | Centexbel | SPECIFIC POLYMERS | AIMEN Centro Tecnológico | CIDETEC | IRIS Technology Solutions | POLYMERIS | Simcon France | CESAM - Centre for Environmental and Marine Studies | PODCOMP AB | Comfil ApS | Moses Productos | University of Limerick | UNE - Asociación Española de Normalización #Biocomposite #sustainable #biobased #digitaltransformation #manufacturing #construction #medical #packaging

📢 October has been rich in events! Let's take a look back at some of the highlights of these events. We start by the #S3_CONGRESS in Alessandria (Italy), where we had the opportunity to present the Bio-Uptake project. The event brought together leading experts, researchers focused on transforming Europe’s bioeconomy. Our project, Bio-Uptake, was warmly received and sparked exciting discussions about fostering the uptake of bio-based solutions and developing innovative, sustainable practices across sectors. Thank you to the organizers, partners, and attendees who contributed to the success of this event. Let’s keep pushing the boundaries of bio-based innovation together! 🔎 #BIOUPTAKE Website: https://lnkd.in/eg6_wNju 👉 #BIOUPTAKE Consortium: Aitiip Centro Tecnológico | Centexbel | SPECIFIC POLYMERS | AIMEN Centro Tecnológico | CIDETEC | IRIS Technology Solutions | POLYMERIS | Simcon France | CESAM - Centre for Environmental and Marine Studies | PODCOMP AB | Comfil ApS | Moses Productos | University of Limerick | UNE - Asociación Española de Normalización #Biocomposite #sustainable #biobased #digitaltransformation #manufacturing #construction #medical #packaging

Last week I had the opportunity to present my work at the #GEP2024 Royal Spanish Chemistry and Physics Society conference. I discussed carbon fiber-reinforced composites (CFRP) and how innovative coating technologies can enhance damage detection in these advanced materials. Without a doubt, a great opportunity to exchange ideas and broaden my perspective. Special thanks to the support of my supervisors Maurice N Collins and Anne Beaucamp Mc Loughlin. This work is part of BIO-UPTAKE project, funded by the European union.
