Bioeconomy

We apply multidisciplinary skills to the bioeconomy and circular economy through R&D projects and technical-scientific consultancies

Mission

We apply the principles of circular economy and bioeconomy by implementing experimental and technical-scientific support for the agronomic and energy exploitation of organic biomass from agriculture, livestock, agrifood and urban sources. We aim to introduce innovative solutions and technologies which permit the exploitation of biomass properties and the optimization of environmental management especially in alpine regions

Innovation and methods

We have expertise in qualitative and quantitative assessment of biomass, treatment processes and their integration under the biorefinery concept, agro-environmental evaluation of products (compost, biogas, digestate, biochar, hydrochar) and effects on soil fertility (see also Biomass Platform)

Facilities

Biomass

This platform analyses the quality, stability and biogas potential of biomass and associated by-products. Different types of organic residues are treated at the composting and anaerobic digestion pilot plant according to customized experimental designs; the plant is also used for teaching.
