Integration of Biology and Engineering into an Economical and Energy-Efficient 2G Bioethanol Biorefinery (PROETHANOL2G)
Start date: Nov 1, 2010, End date: Oct 31, 2014,
The European Union has set a 10 % mandatory target for the share of renewables (including biofuels) in transportation sector by 2020 in Europe.To achieve this goal sustainable biofuels from lignocellulosic biomass must deploy in Europe very soon since the competition between food vs. energy prevents further (significant) increase on the current first-generation biofuels already in the market. This ...

Second generation BIOethanol process: demonstration scale for the step of Lignocellulosic hYdrolysis and FErmentation (BIOLYFE)
Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2013,
The overall goal of BIOLYFE PROJECT is to developing and demonstrating the hydrolysis and fermentation steps at industrial scale of the lignocellulosic bioethanol process, considering the entire chain (i.e. including at the same scale the up-stream and downstream process, namely innovative pre-treatment steps and product separation/utilization). BIOLYFE specifically seeks technologies which have t ...

High efficiency consolidated bioprocess technology for lignocellulose ethanol (HYPE)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
"Lignocellulosic bioethanol has the potential of contributing to a sustainable and secure European energy supply for the transport sector. European research and industry is presently among the forerunners in developing lignocellulosic bioethanol. Although a number of technical breakthroughs have been achieved during the last decade, some key technical issues especially concerning the hydrolysis an ...
