Description
Under the title "Biotechnology 2021: Advancing into a decade of sustainability", CLIB will highlight various trends and developments for a future sustainable economy based on biogenic, renewable and recycled carbon in three digital events and one hybrid, full-day closing event. This second event in the series will focus on the utilisation of gaseous carbon:
CIC2021 Event Series Part III - How to advance lignin to scale
Thursday, 27.05.2021 13 - 16 h CEST
Numerous interesting processes have been developed on a small scale in recent years, but now it is time to bring them to a "reasonable" scale. CLIB has been supporting this issue for the past few years and has coordinated the BMBF-funded project ALIGN. Accordingly, the last two presentations originate from this project and will give some insights regarding the upscaling processes in our consortium. We are very pleased to have Petri Vasara (AFRY & Lignin Club) as a speaker for our keynote. After our first Networking Session and a short break, Peep Pitk (OÜ Graanul Biotech) will present a new kind of flagship biorefinery to fully convert residual woody biomass into sustainable renewable feedstocks. Subsequently, Friedrich Streffer (LXP Group GmbH) will take the LX-Process as an example how to “scale up from the cellar”. Last but not least, Elias Cooreman (CSCE, KU Leuven) will report on the upscaling the reductive catalytic fractionation of lignocellulose biomass.
Participation is free for CLIB members, 80 EUR (plus fees+taxes) for non-members
