Technological capabilities
The DBA center specializes in the valorization of different types of biomass:
- Lignocellulosic biomass (forest residues, waste from the forest industry, by-products of the paper industry, etc.) for the production of new solvents, platform products, etc.
- Biomass of food origin (by-products of oil and fruit juice industries, etc.) for the production of food fibers, detergent aromas, leather tanning products, lubricants, horticultural padding, etc.
- Biomass from algae for the production of materials with the capacity to retain contaminants.
- Biomass from the livestock sector (SANDACH products, slurry) for the production of lubricants,
PCMs, etc.
The center can also offer its expertise in:
- Advanced instrumental analysis (pollutants, bioactive compounds,...).
- Definition and application of indicators for the study of environmental impact.
- Use of plastics in agriculture.
- Ecotoxicity studies.
