The Biocirculacities Trilogy – Episode 3: The journey of the three pilot territories

Posted on by Gaëlle Colas

This summer the Biocircularcities project is coming behind your screen with a series of three exclusive webinars.

Since 2021, three pilot territories have been working on unlocking the circular economy potential of unexploited bio-based waste streams (namely organic fraction of municipal solid waste in the metropolitan area of Barcelona, biowaste from the coffee chain in the metropolitan city of Naples, and residual biomass from forestry and related wood transformation activities in the province Pazardzhik). Thanks to the BBI-JU Biocircularcities project, they have developed new models to boost the circularity of these biowaste chains.

Do you want to know more about these new value chains? Are you eager to adopt the approach followed by the Biocircularcities pilots and spread a circular bioeconomy in your territory? The Biocircularcities Trilogy is for you! The Biocircularcities partners will tell you all about the project, its development, and findings in three webinars.

Time has come for the third and final episode.

Episode 3: The journey of the three pilot territories

The Biocircularcities project brought together three “pilot territories” aiming to improve a specific value-chain focusing on one key bioresidue. The Metropolitan Area of Barcelona in Spain has focused on incentivising quality and quantity of municipal bio-waste separately collected in its urban context, the Metropolitan City of Naples in Italy has tackled the conversion of coffee silverskin from the agrifood industry into high-fibres content bread, and the Province of Pazardzhik in Bulgaria has targeted its forestry residues to collect them for energy or biochemicals production through lignocellulosic valorisation.

Join this third and final webinar of the Biocircularcities Trilogy to follow the journey of the three pilot territories towards these new value-chains and get a taste of the experience they gained during the project. You will hear about a variety of topics, such as how local stakeholders were involved in the process, and how the scientific work of Biocircularcities partners supported the local discussions.

While the episode 1 is already behind us, you can still register for episode 2!

Episode 2: Identifying the most promising biocircular technological options, the Biocircularcities Webtool in action

Do you need help to decide on relevant technological pathway(s) to increase the circularity of the biowaste stream you would like to valorise? Do you want to assess the socio-economic, political and environmental context of the territory where you will implement the biowaste chain according to a list of influential criteria? Here comes the Biocircularcities Webtool!

Developed by the Biocircularcities partners using both the analysis of the main drivers and barriers towards biocircular value chains for biomass waste management and the experience of the pilot areas, this tool will support the identification of the most suitable (bio-circular technologies) for improving the biowaste management and contribute to replicate the project’s findings in other territories.

With this second episode of the Biocircularcities Trilogy you will dive into the Biocircularcities Webtool, discover its specificity, learn how to use it and what you can achieve with it.
