Are we a chemistry company that wants our customers to use less chemistry? Here a great example of how digital services can reduce the amount of resources needed to achieve the same, or even better end result. Resource efficiency improvement figures of double-digits (and over) in our customers process makes a difference. Besides a clear sustainability advantage, a spared resource equals often to a saved cost.

We need a new chapter in the book! Anodyne Chemistries produces enzymes using a technology that uses electrical energy instead of chemical energy, enabling low-emissions, large-scale production of life’s essential chemical inputs. Those chemicals are used in sustainable aviation fuels (#SAF), #biobased nylons, sustainable resins and composites, #sustainable foams, sustainable de-icing, bio-based PTFE, and more. Through a fusion of #biology and #electrochemistry, Anodyne heralds a new era of zero-emission, #renewable £feedstock-based production. And who is going to provide all that #biomass for feedstock? ReStalk - this is where you come in! https://lnkd.in/e2kZQipp

The biological cycle in the circular economy showcases how bioeconomy strategies can transform organic waste into valuable resources. By converting bio-waste and biomass into biobased products, biofuel, and biogas, we enrich organic resources, improve soil health, and recover renewable energy. This closed-loop system promotes sustainability by recycling and reusing materials, ultimately supporting the production of food, plants, and other green goods. However, the bio circular economy faces unique challenges compared to the traditional circular economy. These include the complexity of processing organic materials, ensuring the stability and efficiency of bioprocesses, and integrating biobased solutions into existing industrial systems. Addressing these challenges requires advanced biotechnologies, robust regulatory frameworks, and significant investment in research and development. Together, we can drive a more sustainable future through innovative bioprocessing, tackling these challenges head-on to fully realize the potential of the bio circular economy. #Bioeconomy #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #RenewableEnergy #BiobasedProducts #Organic #GreenTech #WasteManagement #EnvironmentalScience #Innovation #CleanTech #Biotechnology #R&D #RegulatoryChallenges #SustainableFuture #EcoInnovation #GreenSolutions #ResourceEfficiency #BioTech #Renewables #CircularSolutions #SustainableGrowth #ClimateAction

Biodegradation is the property of a material that can be completely converted into water, CO2, and biomass by the action of microorganisms such as fungi and bacteria. Biodegradable plastics can be decomposed by microorganisms present in the environment by penetrating the microbial food chain. Biodegradable plastics can be decomposed by the action of living organisms, usual microbes, carbon dioxide, into the water, and biomass. Biodegradable plastics are produced with microorganisms, renewable raw materials, and petrochemicals.

👉 European Bioplastics (EUBP) advocates for the use of certified compostable products in municipal biowaste management to enhance the circular economy. They highlight that these products are specifically designed for organic processes like anaerobic digestion, which treats biowaste and aids in the separate collection of organic waste. This separation is crucial for producing high-quality compost and increasing biogas production. EUBP suggests that combining anaerobic and aerobic processes maximises the value extracted from biowaste, providing energy and improving soil.
