The 16 REHAP (Reduction of greenhouse gas Emissions, transforming Harvesting waste into high Added value) partners aim to find new uses for agricultural (wheat straw) and forestry (bark) residues through their recovery both from primary (sugars, lignin, tannins) and secondary (sugar acids, carboxylic acids, aromatics and resins) processes, taking into account ecological constructions as business lines. The project will reduce fossil fuel resource use by 80-100%, and energy use and CO2 emissions by over 30%. Specifically, building blocks (1,4- and 2,3-butanediol, stereopolyols), materials (PUs, phenolic resins, modified hydrolysis lignin) and products (wood-based panels, insulating foams, cement, adhesive) will be obtained:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Tannins and carbohydrates from forestry waste into bio-phenolic resins for wood-based panels and isocyanate-free polyurethanes (PU) for insulating foams, respectively.<\/li>\n<li>Lignin and carbohydrates from agricultural waste to be converted into bio-phenolic resins for wood panels and biosuperplasticisers for cement, and biosterpolyols for adhesives, respectively.<\/li>\n<li>Fire retardant lignins and sugar-based additives will also be developed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The developed processing technologies (chemo\/thermo\/enzymatic and fermentation) will be optimised at pilot scale (TRL6-7) for further exploitation and replication of the results. All products will be integrated into a prototype to demonstrate industrial applicability in the Green Building sector. Life cycle and cost assessment, market analysis, business plan, waste management strategy and measures for future standardisation will be carried out throughout the project, using a systemic perspective approach.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>Academic Collaborators:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tecnalia \/ VTT \/ Unia \/ Rina Consulting \/ Collanti Concorde \/ Rampf \/ Insight Publishers LTD \/ Lafarge \/ BBEPP \/ Novamont \/ CUSA \/ CTXI \/ Biosyncaucho \/ Cartif&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>WEBSITE<\/strong>:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbeu.org\/projects\/rehap\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.bbeu.org\/projects\/rehap\/<\/a><br><strong>Watch video<\/strong>:&nbsp; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=DOBoxBb6smg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=DOBoxBb6smg<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ccd540a bt-project elementor-view-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon\" data-id=\"ccd540a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon\">\n\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-chevron-down\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-634ba8e elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"634ba8e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eefbde2 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"eefbde2\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b0872cd elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"b0872cd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<script>\njQuery(document).ready(function(){\n    jQuery(\".bt-project\").on('click',function(){\n        \n        var cont = jQuery(this).closest('.project').find(\".contenido-proyecto\");\n        \n        cont.toggleClass(\"clickado\");\n        jQuery(this).toggleClass(\"abierto\")\n        cont.toggle(200);\n        console.log(\"cierra o abre\",cont);\n    })\n})\n    \n<\/script>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Research, development and innovation are in our DNA.
