Expected Outcome:Successful proposals will contribute to the Circular Economy Action Plan, the Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability and the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation.Projects results are expected to contribute to the following expected outcomes:Wider availability of bio-based films and coatings for packaging products.Improved technical performances of packaging products compared to fossil based and/or bio-based benchmarks.Improved circularity of packaging products against specified market benchmarks taking into account production, use and EoL. Scope:Many research projects have focused on developing and piloting bio-based coatings and films for application in food and non-food packaging. When targeting packaging, a primary challenge is achieving adequate barrier properties (against oxygen, moisture, grease and volatiles), as bio-based materials are typically more hydr...

Expected Impact:Applicants are expected to define, calculate, explain and achieve the expected impacts as described in the Award criterion ‘Impact’ (see Call document section 2 and 9).Objective:The aim is to facilitate the transition toward a sustainable, circular, energy-efficient and climate-resilient economy, a toxic-free environment and at protecting, restoring and improving the quality of the environment in line with the European Green Deal and recent policy developments.The specific objective is to cover one or more of the following topics as fully defined in section 2 of the Call document: Circular Economy and Waste Recovery of Resources from WasteCircular Economy and the Environment Zero pollution and sustainable management of natural resources AirWaterSoilNoiseChemicalsIndustrial Emissions and SafetyA new European Bauhaus Please note that the assessment of the extent to which th...

Expected Outcome:Successful proposals will contribute to the updated EU Bioeconomy Strategy, Farm to Fork Strategy, the Horizon Europe Mission ‘A Soil Deal for Europe’, in particular the objectives: ‘Reduce soil pollution and enhance restoration’, the European Chemical Industry Action Plan as well as the Clean Industrial Deal.Projects results are expected to contribute to the following expected outcomes:Full industrial scale biorefinery and related value chain(s) for the sustainable production of bio-based fertilisers and/or crop protection solutions.Increased availability of cost-competitive and SSbD bio-based alternatives for fertilising and/or crop protection products with suitable agronomic efficacy.Reduced reliance on synthetic/mineral agricultural chemical products.Increased EU strategic autonomy, resilience and competitiveness through a robust cooperation among bio-based industrie...

Expected Outcome:Successful proposals will contribute to the EU Forest Strategy for 2030, the EU Biodiversity Strategy 2030, the Carbon Removal Certification Framework Regulation, the updated EU Bioeconomy Strategy and the upcoming Circular Economy Act.Projects’ results are expected to contribute to the following expected outcomes:Increased availability of bio-based chemicals and/or bio-based materials from woody residues.Increased sustainability of forest-based value chains in cooperation with local forestry owners/cooperatives.Improved end-of-life (EoL) of bio-based products from woody residues. Scope:Besides thin branches, leaves and needles, which are usually left on the soil to maintain the long-term viability of the forest and soil in good condition, forestry and forest industry operations generate large amounts of woody residues which are typically used for energy or low value app...

Expected Outcome:Successful proposals will contribute to the implementation of the Zero Pollution Action Plan, the Circular Economy Action Plan, the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation, the Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability and the Chemical Industry Action Plan. They will provide solutions in line with the objectives of the EU legislation on waste but also the Horizon Europe Mission "Restore our Ocean and Waters by 2030" in particular to Objective 2: "Prevent and eliminate pollution of our oceans, Seas and waters” as well as the Horizon Europe Mission “A Soil Deal for Europe”, in particular objectives “Reduce soil pollution and enhance restoration”.Projects results are expected to contribute to the following expected outcomes:Wider availability of bio-based additives targeting high functional properties, stability and compatibility with polymers/matrices.Contribution to imp...

Scope:Hum...

Expected Outcome:Successful proposals will contribute to updated EU Bioeconomy Strategy, the Clean Industrial Deal, the European Chemical Industry Action Plan and the upcoming Circular Economy Act.Projects results are expected to contribute to the following expected outcomes:Identification of technical, market and regulatory barriers and possible solutions for industry to ‘switch to bio-based’.Contribution to filling the gap between bio-based sectors and the broader industrial landscape. Scope:While the share of bio-based products and processes in traditionally non-bio-based markets has been growing substantially in recent years, many non-bio-based, partially bio-based and more traditional bio-based industries (such as food industry) still perceive market and regulatory situations as uncertain and may therefore be reluctant to invest in new bio-based value chains. These uncertainties may...
