The change of the raw material basis in the chemical industry becomes more and more reality. Strategies for the intensified use of bio-based products are developed in Germany and the EU with regard to 2020. Funding programmes for the creation of sustainable value chains using biomass are currently developed.
Prerequisites for the change to a low carbon economy or bio-economy are aside from access to sustainable produced biomass - efficient treatment and refining technologies for the provision of platform chemicals, which could be used in well established value chains of the chemical industry.
The programme covers the policies and frameworks for the establishment of biorefinieries, the sustainable cultivation of renewable raw materials, joint research biorefinery concepts, platform chemicals and biobased products. Speakers include Prof. Dr. R. Hüttl, German Bioeconomy Research and Technology Council, Prof. Dr. Alfredo Aguilar, European Commission and renowned European experts from research and industry.
