Description

OBJECTIVES:

BioEcoUva aims to promote interdisciplinary research between the different fields of knowledge that are part of the Bioeconomy, creating the right conditions to form multidisciplinary research groups.

It has among its objectives to promote and promote:

innovation-based research
internationalization
the transfer of knowledge and technology to the productive sector
efficient cooperation between the different areas of knowledge and the formation of multidisciplinary teams
postgraduate and doctoral training
continuing training, qualification and empowerment of researchers
the scientific, technological and innovative culture.

Investigation groups:

The Bioeconomy Institute of the University of Valladolid is made up of four research groups, leaders in their fields:

High pressure process group (hpp). Development of sustainable processes using clean technologies such as the use of pressurized gases and water in sub / supercritical conditions, to be used as a solvent or reaction medium
Thermocal. Experimental determination using very high precision techniques of thermodynamic and thermophysical properties of multicomponent fluid systems and their equilibrium properties with other phases
UvaSens. Research on materials and nanomaterials, and their applications in various fields with special attention to food
Dimepro. Business analysis, including aspects related to the commercialization of products, study of their industrialization and competitive intelligence

Together they develop active lines of research within the institute that can be summarized in three large groups:

Bioenergy
Bioprocesses
Biomaterials

The ultimate goal of the institute is to use the knowledge of all its members to help the development of a sustainable world.
