Sustainable bio-based materials and manufacture: CR&D
Deadline: Wednesday 3rd May 2023
The aim of this competition is to develop the design and delivery of new and disruptive sustainable biomanufacturing by 2050. Enabling the UK to be more globally competitive by supporting collaborative research and development (CR&D) across different industries and sectors.
The need for change is driven by the three strategic imperatives:
- climate change
- supply chain resilience
- the cost of energy
Your proposal must support organisations in biomanufacturing in the future to be:
- net zero and resource efficient
- resilient and responsive
- technologically advanced and digital
Your project must focus on one or more of the following themes:
- improving extraction of existing bio-based feedstocks and optimising these processes
- using biotechnology-based systems for developing alternatives to traditional manufacturing processes, including processing and catalysis for sustainability
- the design and development of future advanced bio-products with improved or differentiated properties
- the discovery of novel or optimisation of enzymes to whole organisms for biomanufacturing
- securing value from non-food crop biomass and other waste streams
- improving manufacturability and consistency at scale and progressing the development and adoption of biotechnology, across multiple manufacturing industries and sectors
