BIOMASS FOR THE FUTURE (BFF)
ANR11-BTBR-006 - 2011-2019
Objectives:
- Development of local miscanthus and sorghum biomass production and valorization chains focused on heat-generation, anaerobic digestion and bio-based construction materials.
- Creation of new varieties and culture systems for miscanthus and fiber sorghum, with improved lignocellulosic biomass yield, reduced environmental footprint and a composition tailored for industrial uses, including second generation biofuels and chemicals.
