Description
pHYBi is a project that will combine the concept of soil phytoremediation with the valorisation of lignocellulosic biomass in an integrated circular economy approach to phyto-management. The pHYBi concept will focus its efforts on different levels of development (1) testing, optimisation and validation of 4 phytomanagement case studies, (2) optimisation of biomass fractionation into lignocellulosic components based on organosol techniques, and (3) characterisation and application of lignocellulosic fractions to create a well-planned route to market for potential final applications in the textile industry.
In addition, the project will develop a Virtual Replication Tool in which phytomanagement, valorisation process and final products will be integrated, resulting in guidelines, recommendations and thresholds for replication of the pHYBi case studies across other areas.
