BIORECER: Biological Resources Certifications Schemes
Information
About project
BIORECER mira a garantire le prestazioni ambientali e la tracciabilità delle materie prime biologiche utilizzate dalle industrie biobased, mettendo in atto linee guida per rafforzare gli attuali schemi di certificazione.
Con questo approccio, si aumenterà il valore aggiunto, l’uso e l’accettazione sociale dei bioprodotti. In particolare, BIORECER valuterà l’impatto degli schemi di certificazione attuali e adattati sulla WTP dei consumatori e degli stakeholder delle industrie biobased, nonché l’accettazione da parte delle industrie e dei consumatori di nuove catene di biovalore da materie prime biologiche, comprese le materie prime secondarie e i rifiuti.

Project objectives
In the light of the above, the BIORECER research consortium aims to realise three main technological pillars:
Development of a multidimensional assessment framework for an aggregated analysis of biological raw materials and their supply chains.
Creation of a BIORECER Innovation Ecosystem living lab (BRIE) with a multi-agent approach to test the framework in four case studies with different biological raw material origins and regional value chains in Spain, Italy, Greece and Sweden.
Use of the generated knowledge to complement existing certification schemes, including new criteria for the certification of sustainability, origin and traceability of biological resources, and ensure applicability on a European and global scale.
Concrete actions
- Analyze the entire bio-based value chains (mapping of raw materials and production processes)
- Improve the estimation of raw material properties
- Adapt certification schemes to include environmental performance and sustainability of by-products and waste
- Acceleration in the adoption of biobased raw materials by industry and consumers (increased willingness to pay a green premium) thus increasing their added value and benefits for stakeholders/society/nature.
