Expected results<\/a><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Coordinated by the University of Agronomic Sciences and Veterinary Medicine of Bucharest (P5)<\/a>, WP5 develops biorefinery processes that transform wine-making and food industry by-products and wastes into valuable products. Sustainable extraction and purification methods enable the recovery of bioactive compounds, grape seed oil and nutrient-rich powders, alongside the formulation of plant-based supplements for fish feed. Research also develops biodegradable wine seal capsules and alternative corks, linking waste valorisation with innovative products and circular bioeconomy applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WP5 Objectives<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

O5.1. To develop optimized sustainable extraction and purification processes for high value extracts and bioactive compounds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

O5.2. To develop added value products (grape seeds oil, grape seed powder, phyto supplements for fish feed) with potential applications in various industries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

O5.3. To develop sustainable functional wine bottling solutions for the wine industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WP5 Tasks and Activities<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Task 5.1: Innovative and sustainable solutions for the recovery and characterization of polyphenols-rich extracts from by-products and wastes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Task 5.2: Tailored eco-efficient separation and purification of target bioactive compounds<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Task 5.3: Advanced processes for valorization of grape seeds through enhanced extraction of grape seed oil<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Task 5.4: Advanced processes for valorization of grape seeds through production of nutrient-rich grape seed powder<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Task 5.5: Optimized phyto supplement formulation for fish feed from byproducts<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Task 5.6: Innovative wine bottling (seal capsules) and laboratory scale demonstration<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Task 5.7: Inexpensive, environment-friendly wine bottling (corks) and TRL6 demonstration<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Task 5.7: Inexpensive, environment-friendly wine bottling (corks) and TRL6 demonstration<\/p>\n\n\n\n
