Grant Description

Through our innovation, the product from a process that converts biowaste into a biofuel / biochar (HTC carbon) can be further refined into a bio-based high-value activated carbon and thus give the market an alternative to today's fossil activated carbon. When the bio-based activated carbon reaches the end of its life cycle, it is burned as a biofuel.

This creates a carbon sink, which grows the more cycles the activated carbon is regenerated. When bio-based activated carbon gains market share from fossil activated carbon, the CO2 footprint decreases by about 10 tonnes of CO2 / tonne of activated carbon. If all market shares worldwide are taken from fossil activated carbon, the CO2 footprint can be reduced by about 28 million. tons / year.

The project result will be a platform for further development of IPR and the concept. Contacts with potential customers are deepened and information about the possibilities is spread The basic idea is that IPR is owned by RISE to get it into play.
