Novosides
  • 1G sugar, Biocatalysis, Enzymes, FP7, Fermentation, Finished projects, Food, Glycosides, Other feedstock, Process development (TRL 4-5), Product recovery & purification, Scale-up, Scale-up (TRL 4-6), Small organic molecules, Specialty carbohydrates, Sugar, WP leader

The goal of the Novosides project is the development of biocatalytic processes for the glycosylation of small organic molecules such as flavonoids, alkaloids and steroids. Glycosylation can drastically improve both the physicochemical and biological properties of these molecules (e.g. slow release, improved solubility and stability, taste modification, drug targeting), but few biocatalysts are currently available to perform this modification cost-efficiently at industrial scale.

Pulp2Value
  • Agricultural sidestreams, Arabinose, Biomass pretreatment, Biorefinery, Crystallization, Demonstration (TRL 5-7), Finished projects, Food, Food grade, Galacturonic acid, H2020 BBI-IA-DEMO, Halal and kosher, Market sample production, Microcellulose fibers, Partner, Personal and home care, Polymers and packaging and biomaterials, Product recovery & purification, Sugar beet pulp, Ton scale

Sugar beet pulp (SBP) accounts for approx. 13 million tonnes in Europe and is a major residual stream from the sugar beet industry, which is currently valorised as low value feed and/or green gas. In order to increase the value of its side streams, PULP2VALUE developed multiple extraction techniques to isolate more valuable products from this large fraction of sugar beet pulp.
