About
CELABOR is a research centre based in the Wallonia with a main mission of developing environmental friendly processes that target industrial sectors in biomass extraction, food, packaging, environment and textile. During the last height years, Celabor through its Extraction Department is highly actively involved in EU-funded projects in collaboration with an important network of industrial and academic partners across Europe. In total, 16 European projects (BBI-JU, CBE-JU, H2020 and Horizon Europe) and 4 Interreg projects (North West Europe, Grande Région, France-Wallonie-Vaanderen) around the topic of biomass valorisation have been executed with the participation of Celabor. This allowed Celabor to truly consolidate its expertise and know-how, and to constitute nowadays a unique Biomass Valorization Platform in Wallonia, made up of cutting-edge technologies allowing an environmentally friendly extraction approaches.
