INGREEN

INGREEN is an EU-funded project that will develop functional innovative ingredients from paper and agro-food side streams through biotechnological processes for food, feed, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, cosmetics and biodegradable packaging.

This 3,5-year project will develop new chemicals, new materials, and new consumer products from whey, wheat and rye brans, and paper milling wastewater.

INGREEN will demonstrate in real operational environments sustainable and efficient tailor-made biotechnologies and eco-friendly approaches to produce safe and/or health promoting microbial biomasses and biochemicals, as well as functional ingredients of interest for several industrial sectors.

Innovative bio-based prototypes will be developed and where possible packaged in biodegradable solutions tailored for food, feed, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic needs.
