Project description
Balancing demand and sustainability for biomolecles
As global demand for biomolecules escalates across industries, including food, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, traditional production methods struggle to meet sustainability standards. To address this growing need, novel efficient processes are required for the production and purification of biomolecules. With the support of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) programme, the Bio-GENTLE project aims to propel Europe to the forefront of biomolecule research and development. The initiative will train 12 students to find more sustainable ways to process biomolecules. By working together and focusing on eco-friendly practices including membrane separation processes, the project aims to improve the way biomolecules are produced.
Objective
Bio-GENTLE will train 12 doctoral candidates (DCs) with an overarching goal to propel Europe to the forefront of research and development of biomolecules that can be used as high-volume commodities or low-volume, but high-value compounds in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. The scientific aim of this network will be to produce and share knowledge, insights, and solutions to these objectives, thereby enabling major steps towards, and providing evidence of sustainable biomaterials production on larger scales for application in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics in Europe. Furthermore, the implementation of the actions will connect professionals of various backgrounds from academics and from industry in this network, thus strengthening collaboration and discussions to bring the biomolecules separation and utilization field to the next level of the circular economy. Bio-GENTLE is both original and innovative because it utilizes a unique interdisciplinary approach combining the power of fundamental analysis, experimentation, and mathematical modeling, to create a flexible bioseparation platform geared toward a green and circular economy. The holistic approach, from material to process, is enclosed in this training network. Such an approach is strongly recommended for the successful development of novel membrane processes. The 12 DCs will be trained and experience the complete chain from materials properties to complete process design and evaluation.
