The aim of the task is the development of biotechnological solutions for the bioeconomy providing recycling, functionality and utilization of fruit and vegetables waste, taking under consideration environmental protection and sustainable agriculture.

 

The task subject is part of the bioeconomy, combining production, processing and utilization of biological plant resources to obtain a new bioproducts. On the one hand the research will include the use of renewable plant materials, offering new possibilities for their use. On the other hand the study will take account the impact of waste production on the environment, proposing appropriate waste management and environmental quality monitoring. 

 


New microbiological biopreparations
