Specific Objectives (SO)

SO1

Waste Supply Chain

Feedstock Management: Define, characterize, and pre-treat relevant industrial waste feedstocks.

SO2

Process Integration

Biorefinery Development: Optimally operate and integrate the core bioprocesses (DcoF, Microalgae, HPF) to maximize yield.

SO3

Product Quality & Yield

Product Recovery: Develop energy-efficient downstream processes for advanced HVO and high-added value bioproducts (Astaxanthin).

SO4

System Optimization

Computational Optimization: Apply process modeling, MDO, and supply chain analysis to design and optimize the system.

SO5

Technology Readiness

Validation & Scale-up: Scale-up and validate the core units to TRL 5 under industrially relevant conditions.

SO6

Sustainability Proof

Comprehensive Assessment: Perform a Life Cycle Sustainability Assessment, covering techno-economic (TEA), environmental (LCA), and social (SLCA) viability.

SO7

Market Readiness

Validation & Scale-up: Scale-up and validate the core units to TRL 5 under industrially relevant conditions.
