Biorecer

The project Biorecer aims to ensure performance and traceability of the biological feedstock used by industries, deploying guidelines to strengthen the current certification schemes. With this kind of approach, the added value, the use, and social acceptance of bioproducts increase.

The Biorecer project wants to work towards ensuring the performance and traceability of the biological raw material used by industries, through guidelines to strengthen the current certification systems. To fulfill this goal, the project is structured in three main technical pillars.

  • To develop a multidimensional assessment framework for an aggregated analysis of the biological commodities and their associated supply chains.
  • To create a Biorecer Innovation ecosystem living-lab with a multi-agent approach.
  • To use this knowledge to complement current certification systems, including new criteria, to certify the sustainability, origin and traceability of biological resources, and ensure applicability on an EU and global scale.

The transition to a bio-based economy is expected to bring significant environmental and economic benefits. Specifically, Biorecer will assess the impact of current and adapted certification systems on consumers' and biobased industries' stakeholders' WTP along with industries' and consumers' acceptance of new biological value chains from biological raw materials, including residues and waste.

The project will first design and develop a multi-dimensional framework to analyze and define the environmental performance assessment of biological resources and traceability which will then be validated in 4 complete bio-based systems and applied to a wide range of bio-based value chains. This approach will be developed through the joint creation of two levels of interaction: a physical one through the creation of a BioResources Stakeholders Platform (BRSP) and a "digital" one through a BIORECER ICT tool (BIT) to reinforce the "scope" of the project. RISE is active in two work packages in the project. The focus of the work is on residual forest streams.
