Bioethanol from paper fibres separated from solid waste, MSW (FIBREETOH)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

The EC Directives set ambitious targets for mandatory 10 % biofuels share in road transport. 2nd generation biofuels will give significant benefits as ethanol blends in gasoline and synthetic biodiesel products. The innovative focus in the FibreEtOH project is to demonstrate for the first time globally in a commercial scale, a cost efficient paper fibre based ethanol production with high, > 70 ...

Novel high-performance enzymes and micro-organisms for conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to bioethanol (NEMO)

Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2013,

The NEMO project provides novel efficient enzymes and microbes for 2nd generation bioethanol production. It generates through metabolic engineering and mutagenesis & screening approaches robust yeast strains that have a broad substrate range and can (co-)ferment C6 and C5 sugars to ethanol with high productivity (rate and yield), and that are significantly more stress tolerant, i.e. inhibitor, eth ...

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 ...
