Turning waste into new raw materials
The Zero Waste Project turns underused resources into high-value functional products through biotechnological processes and circular-economy models.
The challenge
Agro-industrial waste is a wasted resource
Large volumes of agro-industrial by-products, wastewater and organic waste are discarded or managed at low value, creating environmental costs and losing usable nutrients, sugars and functional compounds.
The solution
Close the loop, create value
We recover natural sugars from complex polysaccharides, nutrients from wastewater and leachate, and turn organic waste into new functional raw materials for agriculture and food.
- Fertilizers and amendments rich in beneficial microflora and microfauna
- Bio-inputs for regenerative agriculture
- Ingredients for functional foods and beverages
- Low-impact natural sweeteners
How it works
From waste to functional product
Waste characterization
We identify the usable nutrients, sugars and functional compounds in each stream.
Biotechnological processes
Recovery of sugars from complex polysaccharides and of nutrients from wastewater and leachate.
Product formulation
Conversion into fertilizers, bio-inputs, functional ingredients and natural sweeteners.
Validation and scale-up
Functionality testing and an internationally replicable model.
Applications & markets
Product portfolio
Next-generation fertilizers
Balanced nutrition and recovery of degraded soils.
Regenerative bio-inputs
Populations of beneficial soil microflora and microfauna.
Functional ingredients
