Event
FACCE SURPLUS status seminar
The ERA-NET FACCE SURPLUS (Sustainable and Resilient agriculture for food and non-food systems) will hold an online event on 28-29 September 2021. The FACCE SURPLUS meeting has three aims:
1.Status seminars of projects of the FACCE SURPLUS 2nd and 3rd call
2. Valorisation Workshop “meet the expert” with SURPLUS 2 and 3 projects
4. Horizon Info Event / Internal FACCE SURPLUS meeting
FACCE-JPI’s ERA-NET Cofund SURPLUS is an interdisciplinary programme on sustainable food and non-food systems. The 8 projects in the 2nd Call (2017-2021) of this network aim at developing small-scale bio refining. Researchers assess opportunities to valorise chicory, barley straw, or other crop waste, develop methods to use the whole plant, or technologies to extract useful molecules. The 6 research projects of the 3rd call (2019 ongoing) were selected in order to complete the portfolio of projects and fill remaining research gaps. Their portfolio includes cascade waste conversion, biorefinery solutions, optimising biomass production on marginal soils and bioenergy crops.
