Achieving Europe’s clean energy transition requires more than technological breakthroughs; collaboration is equally essential. The Fuels-C project is therefore pleased to strengthen its cooperation with the EU-funded FLEXBY project, creating new synergies within Europe’s research and innovation landscape.
At Fuels-C, we are developing cost- and energy-efficient technologies to convert biogenic residues into advanced fuels such as ethanol, formic acid, methane and ammonia. These can be used as drop-in solutions or to power fuel cells, contributing to the decarbonisation of aviation, maritime, and heavy-duty transport sectors.
FLEXBY, in turn, is advancing innovative microwave-assisted pyrolysis and catalytic upgrading processes to produce sustainable bio-liquids and hydrogen carriers from industrial sludge and microalgae cultivated in wastewater. By valorising these challenging residues, FLEXBY provides a complementary pathway to broaden the feedstock base and increase the efficiency of advanced biofuel production.
Together, our projects represent a holistic approach to biomass valorisation and advanced fuel generation, ranging from pyrolysis and catalytic processes to gasification and electrochemical methods. This collaboration enables us to exchange knowledge, align methodologies, and amplify the impact of our results through joint dissemination and outreach activities.
Through this partnership, Fuels-C and FLEXBY are not only advancing their individual technological goals but also contributing to a resilient, interconnected European innovation ecosystem, where projects reinforce one another to deliver greater collective impact in the transition to climate neutrality.
