Topic 2: Towards diverse, sustainable and circular food processing systems
We need a company that contributes to impact-driven and innovation-oriented projects by carrying out life cycle assessment (LCA); techno-economic assessment (TEA); circularity assessment.
Our consortium has been formed to develop a proposal for the recovery of agri-food waste, considering innovative and sustainable extraction processes and biotechnological fermentation processes using bacteria.
CTNC is a non-profit business research association. Our researchers work at the intersection of applied research, pilot-scale validation and direct industrial implementation. The centre supports agri-food companies in transforming scientific results into market-ready solutions, ensuring that research results respond to the real needs of the industry and can be effectively implemented.
The CTNC offers a dynamic environment for working on sustainable food technologies, circular bioeconomy, food safety, functional ingredients and industrial process optimisation, always under real operating constraints. Research at the CTNC is based on impact, feasibility and scalability, connecting laboratory knowledge with industrial reality.
We have a large pilot plant with lines for the treatment, extraction, purification and stabilisation of ingredients. Our facilities are also equipped with food processing lines, including packaging.
