Kan något så enkelt som bakterier vara en lösning på många av vår tids största problem som miljöförstöring, matbrist och vällevnadssjukdomar? Ja, det menar den japanske forskaren och agronomen Teruo Higa som är hjärnan bakom utveckling av den bakteriekultur som har fått namnet Effective microorganisms, EM.

Biochar technologies searched for European Union contest

http://refertil.info/content/biochar-technologies-searched-european-union-contestThe goals of the REFERTIL EU biochar standardization are clear, that are improving resources recycling and utilization efficiency, and develop new economy with associated environmental benefits.  In this context biochar eco-innovation is far more important now-days and in the future than ever, as there is a direct interconnection between the ongoing and long lasting economical crisis and the environmental / resource efficiency, for which new solutions and eco-innovations must needed. 

 

The low grade and underdeveloped environmental technology management is directly inter linked to the current and future coming economic crisis. Wasting environmental resources could spark new - even more deeper - economical recession. The overuse and waste of valuable natural resources is threatening to produce a fresh economic crisis as well. 

 

In this context the REFERTIL is searching for cooperation with industrial type biochar technologies with sustainable economical and environmental performance, which would certainly expand the market opportunities of the competitive biochar producers.

Project Title: Reducing mineral fertilisers and chemicals use in agriculture by recycling treated organic waste as compost and bio-char products.  (REFERTIL). Contract number: 289785

Coordinator: Terra Humana Ltd./ Edward Someus
Project partners >>
Programme: European Union Seventh Framework Programme (2007-2013),  FP7-KBBE-2011.1.2-02

Objective:  EU legislation support by definition of improved compost and biochar standards in the EU27. Improvement of common compost quality standards and development of new biochar quality standards for the EU 27 by 2013 for European Union Commission regulation law harmonization support. The aim of the REFERTIL project is about improved compost standardization and new standard development for biochar in the EU27, for safer, better, less costly and more environmental friendly utilization of the EU27 generated 150 M t/y plant/animal biomass waste streams.
Project Duration: 48 months, Starting date: October 1, 2011
