The CIRCULAR BIOCARBON biorefinery will sit within the already existing facilities of the Biopiattaforma, an internal project promoted by Group CAP to transform the waste-to-energy and wastewater treatment plants into a bioplatform dedicated to a carbon-neutral circular economy.
The biorefinery will be built in the facilities of “Alfonso Maíllo” Innovation Center and in the Center for Urban Waste Treatment of Zaragoza (CTRUZ), owned by the Municipality of Zaragoza and managed by CIRCULAR BIOCARBON coordinator URBASER.
Turning urban waste streams into added-value products CIRCULAR BIOCARBON presents a first-of-a-kind flagship biorefinery designed to valorise the Organic Fraction of Municipal Solid Waste (OFMSW) and Sewage Sludge (SS) into high-added-value end and intermediate products, including coating of direct consumer products, coating of mechanical moving parts, coating of plastic moulding tools, biodegradable and compostable waste bags, green graphene-based devices and products, biodegradable soil mulch films, so
