Development of Advanced Biofuels Laboratory

Development of a technology portfolio aimed to produce drop-in advanced biofuels from forest residues and local agricultural residues, such as diesel, kerosene and maritime types,
The Program will manage a portfolio of 4 projects:

1. Development of a hydrothermal liquefaction technology of lignocellulosic biomass to produce advanced biofuels.
2. Development of a fast pyrolysis technology of lignocellulosic biomass to produce advanced biofuels.
3. Development of a biomass gasification synthesis gas fermentation technology to produce advanced biofuels.
4. Creation of a Microbiology and Biotechnological Developments Laboratory for the production of advanced biofuels from different carbon sources, both 2G hydrolysates and renewable gases (synthesis gas and CO2).

Focused on the technologies industrialization and results valorization through different transfer options to the industry, in order to reach the market on an early stage.
