Scope:Specific challenge: The agro-industry has significant opportunities for developing high added value products by valorising currently underexploited resources in new applications and markets. Two main feedstocks have been identified in this context: 1) growing dedicated non food feedstock in regions that are unsuitable for the production of food crops (e.g. oil crops in dry or marginal land); and 2) residues and side-streams from the agro-food value chain that are currently un- or under-utilised (e.g. vegetable pulp, bran, leaves). While demonstration activities are already being pursued to this end, the challenge lies in demonstrating at industrial scale a first of a kind, cost-effective new bio-based value chain for the conversion of the targeted streams into biochemical intermediates and subsequent production of added value products, e.g. biolubricants, bioplastics or biofillers.
Scope:Demonstration of the techno-economic viability of the sustainable conversion, by an integration of chemical and biotechnologies, of currently underutilised agricultural streams (which can be either oil crops grown in dry environments, crops from marginal lands, or residues from...

Scope:Specific challenge: The agro-industry has significant opportunities for developing high added value products by valorising currently underexploited resources in new applications and markets. Two main feedstocks have been identified in this context: 1) growing dedicated non food feedstock in regions that are unsuitable for the production of food crops (e.g. oil crops in dry or marginal land); and 2) residues and side-streams from the agro-food value chain that are currently un- or under-utilised (e.g. vegetable pulp, bran, leaves).

Scope:Demonstration of the techno-economic viability of the sustainable conversion, by an integration of chemical and biotechnologies, of currently underutilised agricultural streams (which can be either oil crops grown in dry environments, crops from marginal lands, or residues from the agro-food value chain) from a local integrated supply chain into bio‑chemical intermediates, and their subsequent processing into end-products (e.g. biolubricants, bioplastics and biofillers) at industrial scale (e.g. more than 30 ktons per year). Proposals should employ all possible means of industrial symbiosis and energy integration with the industrial environment and, wherever possible, make use of existing facilities. Safety, quality and purity of the end products should meet commercial requirements. Proposals should prove the economical access to sufficient raw material to set up the new supply chain and provide evidence that the used feedstock streams are either grown on land that is unsuitable for food production or represent a underutilised residue from the agro-food industry. A life-cycle assessment should be carried out in order to evaluate the environmental and socio-economic performance of the demonstrated value chain. Involvement of end-users is required with a view to ensuring the viability of the developed concepts in the value chain.
It is considered that proposals with a total eligible budget of at least EUR 25 million would allow this specific challenge to be addressed appropriately. Nonetheless, this does not preclude submission and selection of proposals with another budget.
Expected impact:
Demonstrating a new local bio-based value chain maximising the use of currently underutilized agricultural resources for the production of chemical building blocks and consumer products e.g. biolubricants, bioplastics and biofillers.
Developing new products with more than 70% bio-based content and less than 2.3 kg CO2eq/kg emission.
Demonstrating products with a 3 times higher value than the current application of feedstock side streams, leading to a significantly higher total valorisation of the agricultural crops.
Creating green jobs facilitating the development of entrepreneurial activities throughout the entire region, with advantages for the primary sector (i.e. agriculture and livestock farming), the secondary sector (e.g. logistics, bioproduct transformation industry) and the tertiary sector.

Características del consorcio
:
La ayuda es de ámbito europeo, puede aplicar a esta linea cualquier empresa que forme parte de la Comunidad Europea.
Características del Proyecto
Los costes de personal subvencionables cubren las horas de trabajo efectivo de las personas directamente dedicadas a la ejecución de la acción. Los propietarios de pequeñas y medianas empresas que no perciban salario y otras personas físicas que no perciban salario podrán imputar los costes de personal sobre la base de una escala de costes unitarios
Los otros costes directos se dividen en los siguientes apartados: Viajes, amortizaciones, equipamiento y otros bienes y servicios. Se financia la amortización de equipos, permitiendo incluir la amortización de equipos adquiridos antes del proyecto si se registra durante su ejecución. En el apartado de otros bienes y servicios se incluyen los diferentes bienes y servicios comprados por los beneficiarios a proveedores externos para poder llevar a cabo sus tareas
La subcontratación en ayudas europeas no debe tratarse del core de actividades de I+D del proyecto. El contratista debe ser seleccionado por el beneficiario de acuerdo con el principio de mejor relación calidad-precio bajo las condiciones de transparencia e igualdad (en ningún caso consistirá en solicitar menos de 3 ofertas). En el caso de entidades públicas, para la subcontratación se deberán de seguir las leyes que rijan en el país al que pertenezca el contratante
