BioColEol

This project is funded by Interreg Vlaanderen-Nederland and is co-financed by the Province of Limburg and the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy. Objectives BioColEol aims to develop and apply bio-based colorants and polymers. The main goals are: Development of Bio-based Colorants: The project focuses on colorants such as curcumine, pelargonidin, purpurine, and alizarine, which are environmentally friendly and stable.Improving Color Stability: By applying industrial methods and integrating the colorants into bio-based matrices.End-of-Life Strategies: Evaluating mechanical recycling, decolorization, and biodegradation of bio-based polymers.Cytotoxicity and Environmental Impact: Comparing bio-based colorants with synthetic alternatives to ensure their safety and environmental friendliness. Expected Outcomes The project aims to stimulate the bio-polymer market, enhance collaboration with SMEs, and achieve synergies in the triple helix (academia, industry, government). Additionally, new circular strategies for bio-based products will be developed.
