3F BIO, along with a consortium of 9 other partners, announce the launch of a project (known as ‘PLENITUDE’) to build a first-of-its-kind, large-scale, integrated biorefinery facility to produce proteins for food from low-cost sustainable feedstocks.
This initiative aims to support sustainability-driven innovation in creating new local value from waste and biomass. It will focus on helping develop sustainable and climate-neutral technologies and replacing non-renewable fossil and mineral resources with biomass and waste to obtain renewable products and nutrients.

In this IEA Bioenergy Task 42 report four case studies on biorefinery pathways are investigated via a technical, economic and environmental (TEE) assessment. The results will be presented in the structure of biorefinery fact sheets.
An EU-financed project involving public and private organisations from Spain and Italy has developed new biopolymers for use in the leather-making process which have a smaller environmental footprint than the products that are currently being used in tanning processes.
At the end of its seven-year term, theCouncil calls on the German government to do even more to encourage the transition to a sustainable and biobased economy.
The EU's Joint Research Centre (JRC) recently published a report analysing collaboration between EU Joint Undertakings (JUs), such as the BBI JU, and the EU's Structural and Investment Funds (ESI). The BBI JU is cited multiple times in the analysis.
The Bio-based Industries Joint Undertaking (BBI JU) grant agreements for 18 new projects under the 2018 Call for proposals are now signed, bringing the total number of BBI JU-funded projects to 100. The newly signed projects will tackle a range of different topics from unlocking the potential of biodegradable packaging to using mealworms to produce animal feed.
