One of the main inputs of the IRODDI Project have been to promote moving to a biorefinery-based sustainable model, close loops with circular #bioeconomy and maximize the efficient use of available resources. https://iroddi.eu/

How to choose between different biobased polymers? How can Life Cycle Assessments be used to evaluate their ecological sustainability? In December 2023, the EU-funded project BioSupPack organised a workshop to identify the challenges in implementing sustainability assessments for #biobased polymers and how to overcome them. Potential solutions were suggested during the interactive workshop. Learn more at https://lnkd.in/dWRcb3m4

📣 Sustainability and Innovation: Our Path to a Greener Planet 🌎 Feel free to contact us to discuss EU Taxonomy for your Company ! For years, at RAUMEDIC, we have been pursuing a vision to positively impact the world through responsible action in the areas of ecology, economy, and social issues. Our focus is on the development and use of renewable resources, particularly biopolymers, which offer an ecological alternative to traditional plastics. These materials are not only sustainable but also innovative, enabling new applications in the medical field and contributing to a healthier environment through their significantly reduced CO2 emissions. Biopolymers, or bioplastics, are a key element of our strategy. They are derived from renewable resources and are, in some cases, biodegradable. These materials differ from conventional polymers in the origin of their monomers, making them an attractive option for CO2 savings. In line with the EU Taxonomy, which is part of the EU Action Plan for Sustainable Finance, we are making a significant contribution to climate protection. It is our concern to create transparency about the sustainability of our economic activities and to support our customers in optimizing the CO2 footprint in their supply chain. This not only offers ecological benefits but also a real economic incentive. _______________ #RAUMEDIC #SustainabilityInMedTech #InnovationForHealth #GreenTechnology #Biopolymers #EcoFriendlySolutions #ClimateAction

The European Commission's latest study explores pricing #GreenhouseGas (#GHG) emissions in #agriculture, proposing innovative #AgETS policies.

I am delighted to announce that our research article titled "Agro-Waste-Based Bio-Nanocomposite for the Mitigation of Pb (II) Ions from Water" has been published! I had the opportunity to work alongside a talented team to explore the innovative use of agro-waste materials to develop a bio-nanocomposite capable of effectively removing Pb (II) ions from contaminated water. This sustainable approach not only addresses environmental pollution but also adds value to agricultural waste, promoting a circular economy. 🔍 Key Highlights: Sustainable Materials: Utilized agro-waste to create an eco-friendly bio-nanocomposite. Effective Mitigation: Demonstrated significant removal efficiency of Pb (II) ions from water. Environmental Impact: Offers a green solution for water purification, contributing to cleaner and safer water sources. This research underscores the potential of combining environmental science and nanotechnology to tackle pressing issues like heavy metal contamination in water. I am grateful for the support and guidance from our mentors, colleagues, and the entire research team who made this possible. I look forward to continuing this journey of scientific discovery and contributing to sustainable solutions for our environment.

👉 The EU Bioeconomy Strategy sees cities becoming major circular bioeconomy hubs, where biowaste is a feedstock for safe and sustainable #biobased products. The HOOP Project (#Horizon2020) aims to drive innovation in the sector by assisting 🏙 8 cities and regions, our Lighthouses, in the implementation of novel circular processes. By helping the Lighthouses address legal, financial, and technical barriers, HOOP will unlock significant investments in state-of-the-art #biowaste and wastewater valorisation technologies. 💻 Do you want to discover learnings and good practices to help make urban circular bioeconomy projects a reality developed within HOOP in a webinar series experts?

The road to net-zero 🍃starts with understanding. Charting📊 the recent numbers of EU greenhouse gas emissions by various sectors. According to Eurostat, the amount of GHG emissions decreased 📉by 5.3% in the second quarter of 2023 when compared to the previous year. In supporting the EU mission to cut down the emissions to at least 55% by 2030, the Biolamer Project takes a novel approach🚀 of converting food waste into biodegradable biopolymers, which in turn will reduce the emission of methane caused by food waste in landfills.
