|
This conference will present the industrial perspectives of current and future biorefineries and identify opportunities for the pulp and paper industries. The programme will explore the forest biorefinery platform and its promises and progress to date, as well as examine how today’s existing technologies can be modified and adapted to use in new and different ways to achieve the many benefits of forest biorefining. It will focus on updating the audience with novel case studies, initiatives and pilot projects from different parts of the world.

biorefinica 2009
Date :27 to 28 January 2009 • Place : Osnabrück (Germany) - website:

Biobased products and biorefineries
Promoted by the DBU, the meanwhile fourth international Biorefinica will take place on 27-28 January 2009. Guiding theme of the event is the conversion to biomass for the chemical industry with which especially also the use of non food material is considered. The high functionalisation degree of renewable primary products necessitates new synthesis and processing strategies.
The Biorefinica 2009 is the platform to discuss concrete practice examples, industrial applications and the economic viability of the procedures. One additional topic in the focus of attention is the evaluation and balancing of sustainability. On basis of such a balancing, different conversion procedures are compared and assessed.
