Welcome to the 1st Newsletter of the FRONTSH1P project

Author: Rafał Łukasik One of the most challenging objectives of the FRONTSH1P project is the valorisation of marginal streams and by-products in innovative circular biorefineries. Sugars are one of the most important streams, that can be valorised in multiple...

Authors: Alberto Fragapane, Daniele Turati, Pieter Ravaglia The development of innovative products from bio-based feedstocks can be one of the main contributions of the bioeconomy to sustainable development due to their carbon being biogenic («bio-based»), which means...

Authors: Alberto Fragapane, Daniele Turati, Pieter Ravaglia Circular products are those that are designed not to become waste at the end of their life cycle by either being reused, recycled or composted. The circular bioeconomy is crucial in promoting this eco-design...

Authors: Lorenzo Menin, Vittoria Benedetti, Francesco Patuzzi, Marco Baratieri The challenges inherent to the CSS1 of the FRONTHSH1P project span from the nitty-gritty of the technical aspects to the interpersonal engagement activities at the core of the broader...

Authors: Vittoria Benedetti, Lorenzo Menin, Francesco Patuzzi, Marco Baratieri CSS1, implemented in WP3, aims at developing a circular economy concept based on the valorisation of wood packaging waste (e.g., pallets) through refurbishing, reusing, recycling, energy...

Author: Vasiliki Kontou With the aim of valorising wood packaging waste, FRONTSH1P CSS1 encompasses the design, construction and operation of a gasification plant combined with a gas burner for heat generation and a post-combustion capture (PCC) unit for CO2 capture....

Authors: Vittoria Benedetti, Lorenzo Menin, Francesco Patuzzi, Marco Baratieri In CSS1, low-quality wood packaging residues are gasified in order to obtain renewable thermal energy to provide heat to industrial and domestic utilities. However, during gasification, not...

Authors: Lorenzo Menin, Vittoria Bendetti, Francesco Patuzzi, Marco Baratieri Many of us have heard the term “gasification” before. The word itself reminds us of a process converting something non-gaseous to something gaseous. More specifically, gasification converts...
