This webinar showcased concrete, circular solutions to valorize biomass grown on marginal lands for high-performance bio-based industrial applications. The webinar focused on major advancements in sustainable manufacturing of biomaterials from agricultural biomass, including:
Advanced bio-based medium density fibreboards (MDF) and particleboards from woody biomass, alternative fibers and renewable binders.
Next-Generation bio-based adhesives from plant proteins as sustainable alternatives to phenol in phenol-formaldehyde resins and bio-based coatings for wood-based panels.
