La Bio-based Industries Joint Undertaking (BBI JU) è un partenariato pubblico-privato tra l’Unione Europea, rappresentata dalla Commissione, ed il Bio-based Industries Consortium (BIC). La BBI JU è responsabile per l’implementazione di calls per la presentazione di proposte per progetti di ricerca, innovazione ed azioni di coordinamento e supporto, in linea con le regole di partecipazione ad Horizon 2020. Sul Participant Portal è aperta la prima call 2015 H2020-BBI-PPP-2015-1-1 con i seguenti tre topics:
- BBI.VC1.F1: From lignocellulosic feedstock to advanced bio-based chemicals, materials or ethanol.
- BBI.VC2.F2: Valorisation of cellulose into new added value products.
- BBI.VC4.F3: Innovative processes for sugar recovery and conversion from Municipal Solid Waste (MSW).
Il PPP BBI JU ha inoltre pubblicato l’elenco provvisorio dei topics e degli stanziamenti di bilancio della seconda call del 2015. Per le Research and Innovation Actions (budget complessivo 40 milioni di euro), i topics sono:
- BBI.VC1.R1: Conversion of lignin rich-reach streams from biorefineries;
