BIO-QED

European research project for developing biochemicals from renewable sources.

Opening new industrial routes for the production of important chemicals from renewable sources rather than traditional petrochemical sources: this, in summary, is the aim of the BIO-QED project, financed by the European Union as part of the Seventh Framework Programme, involving 10 partners from 6 European countries (Italy, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Croatia and Spain) who will collaborate to define innovative and sustainable industrial processes for the production of biochemicals from renewable sources.
