ReBioBW - Potential of agricultural residues for the Bioeconomy in Baden-Württemberg

The ReBioBW project is currently recording the potential of all existing side streams from agricultural production and the first processing stages in Baden-Württemberg in order to show how they could be used for local resource utilisation in a sustainable and circular Bioeconomy.

Duration: 1. September 2022 - 31. August 2025

Funder: Ministry of Food, Rural Areas and Consumer Protection Baden-Württemberg (MLR)

BioBeo - Innovative Education for the BioEconomy

The project ties in with ESD (Education for Sustainable Development) activities in Baden-Württemberg, but is geared toward bioeconomy education throughout Europe. Many materials, such as comics and a game, as well as a bioeconomy curriculum, are already available. Starting in January 2025, there will be small AI education elements for the youngest children.

Duration: 1. November 2022 - 30. April 2025

Funder: The European Commission (Horizon Europe)

Total founding: 1.871.312,50 €

CirCulTex - Circular urban cultivation systems with re-usable textile growing substrates

Urban agriculture makes a variety of contributions to sustainable urban development in the growing Bioeconomy. However, usable open spaces are often scarce and the growing media used, especially for soilless cultivation methods such as peat and rock wool, are not sustainable. The aim of this sub-project is to develop a reusable textile substrate for hydroponic and terrabioponic urban cultivation systems, including suitable cleaning processes. Textiles are light, adaptable and stable. Therefore, textiles have great potential as a growing substrate for urban areas.

Duration: 1. July 2021 - 31. December 2024

Total Funding: approx. 170.000 €

Funder: The Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) & Indo-German Science and Technology Center (IGSTC)
