Bioboost offers free services to accelerate systemic bioeconomy projects in Catalonia.
What is a bioeconomy project? How does BioBoost help systemic projects?
These are the results of the first accelerated project: Alcarràs Bioproductors.
Alcarràs Bioproductors is an association (SAT) of 150 farming families that have come together to jointly manage their livestock waste. They have collectively purchased a 50-hectare plot that will become the first biopolymer in Catalonia, featuring a composting plant, an open-access industrial pre-scaling plant, and a biogas plant.
Bioboost facilitated:
Expansion from what was initially a private project for scaling up an anaerobic digestion plant to a territorial and collaborative waste management project that produces gas for agricultural machinery and provides systemic benefits:
- Strategic innovation line in the transformation of agricultural engines
- Innovation in public assistance measures for the decarbonization of agricultural activity
- Innovation in forms and business models for the distribution of alternative renewable fuels
Addition of another business line for the development of high-end fertilizers from digestate, which was previously used for compost, providing the following benefits:
- Ecological and regenerative agriculture as a production model (and CO2 capture)
- Propose public incentive measures to promote the use of these types of products
- Technological innovation lines and business development assistance
The transversal services offered can be summarized as regulations, legalizations, and financing.
