Call for participation: accelerate the development of bio-aromatics
Last year, the province of Noord-Brabant, TNO, ECN and the Flemish VITO announced to jointly invest € 10 million in the development of bio-aromatics. Now we are making plans to use the financing to accelerate the development of bio-aromatics. You can join and benefit from a significant leverage on your contribution as well.

Separation/fractionation of lignin oils via membrane separation technology
In the BIO-HArT project VITO succeeded in using membrane separation technology to separate lignin oils based on molecular weight via a cascade process by using 2 membranes in series. Different fractions of lignin derivatives enriched in monomers or oligomers can be successfully produced with the developed protocols.
