NEWS & PROJECTS

CBIO IS A LEADING INTERDISIPLINARY NETWORK CENTRE IN CIRCULAR BIOECONOMY

The Centre for Circular Bioeconomy at Aarhus University (CBIO) is a prominent network of researchers, students, and members from industry and organisations that are working for a biobased and circular bioeconomy. Since its foundation in 2017, CBIO has expanded to include eight departments and centres at Aarhus University, each represented by researchers engaged in interdisciplinary projects focused on circular bioeconomy, both within and beyond CBIO.

Marine and agricultural biomasses are valuable resources. In the transformation from a fossil-based to a biobased society with principles of circularity, biorefining is an essential production form in cascade utilization of biomass for needed products like feed, food, materials, fuel, and energy.

CBIO engages in comprehensive interdisciplinary research across the entire production chain, partnering with national and international industries in the bioeconomy sector. From biomass refining, cultivation, logistics, management, life cyclus analysis, and recycling. Additionally, we assess the environmental and societal impacts of our innovations.

UNDERSTAND CIRCULAR BIOECONOMY

A circular bioeconomy recycles biological resources like biomass and organic waste to reduce waste and environmental impact.

The goal is to create a more sustainable future by using natural resources in a way that supports economic growth while protecting the environment.
