Bio4Energy research environment Bio4Energy aims to create highly efficient and environmentally-sound biorefinery processes—including methods and tools for making products such as biofuels, "green" chemicals and new bio-based materials—with biomass sourced from forests or organic waste as a raw material.
BioHub In BioHub we aim to improve the value gained from forest biomass and to better serve the industry in this transition phase. The project will launch new business models for terminals to direct material flows from forest to industries.
Comush On September 1, 2017 the project Forest residues for combined edible mushroom and biofuel production (COMUSH) started. The project is part of the innovation project "BioEconomy 2.0 - Better Valorization of Residual Flows" as one of six sub-projects.
Cost-effective and sustainable storage of chiped forest residues and solid byproducts The project will demonstrate methods for cost-effective and sustainable management during storage of unprocessed forest residues, with minimised risk of self-ignition.
FOBIA The FOBIA project aims at enhancing business competitiveness of forestry service enterprises in the northern and peripheral regions of Finland, Sweden, Scotland and Ireland. The origin of the project lies in the need to improve the enterprises’ ability to meet increased service demands.
High-velocity vacuum drying of forest industry sludge materials
Industry Nordic - Towards Nordic Industrial Scale Manufacturing of Non-Wood Forest Products The aim of the project is to develop the Nordic natural products industry through increasing the processing level of local raw material among small enterprises in order to offer products for the large international markets.
MOBILE FLIP MOBILE FLIP aims at developing and demonstrating mobile processes for the treatment of underexploited agro- and forest based biomass resources into products and intermediates. The processes will be evaluated in terms of raw material flexibility, as the biomass resources are typically scattered and seasonal.
Pellet development (PELS) Pellet development to meet future product, safety and emission demands.
Reduced forest soil damage by advanced machine routing and motion planning Increased interest in forest based ecosystem services requires new solutions on how our forests are used. An obvious improvement is to be more careful in conventional forestry.
SLURP Sludge commoditisation – development of a concept for refining sludge to a commercial product
Tannins for waste water treatment (TanWat) The project will develop methods for water purification by using residues in the forest industry. By increasing the use of the side product, it will benefit both the forest industry and the environment as the methods will be more environmentally friendly.
