1 INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH, INDUSTRIAL COOPERATION AND KNOWLEDGE EXCHANGE IN THE CIRCULAR BIOECONOMY UNIVERSITY 15 MARCH 2018 SENIOR RESEARCHER, HEAD OF CENTRE

2 UNIVERSITY THEMATICAL CENTRES New strategical interdisciplinary thematical centres within global challenge areas: Circular Bioeconomy Integrated Materials Research Water Technology Digitization, big data, and data analytics ifood iclimate Integrated Life Science AU UNIVERSITY SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY NIELS CHR. NIELSEN DEAN MAY-JUNE 2017

3 WE ARE WELL AHEAD ON RECYCLING OF BIO-RESOURCES IN DENMARK BUT THERE IS STILL A LOT TO DO

4 CIRCULAR BIOECONOMY INTEGRATES SUSTAINABILITY AND PRODUCTIVITY

5 KEY CBIO MISSION IS TO COUPLE UNIQUE RESEARCH PLATFORMS WITHIN THE UNIVERSITY 120 Rel. PPO Activities [%] Red clover Rye grass Spinach White clover Heat treated spinach

6 BRAND NEW CIRCULAR PRODUCT CHAINS NEED TO BE UNDERSTOOD, OPTIMIZED AND SYSTEM EVALUATED Nutrient recycling Nutrient uptake Nutrient losses

7 A NEW LAND-BASED PRODUCT CHAIN MAY HELP REDUCE N- LOSSES SIGNIFICANTLY Nutrient recycling Nutrient uptake Nutrient losses

8 MANY DETAILS NEED FURTHER OPTIMISATION Jensen, 2017

9 NEW CBIO POSITIONS TO ADDRESS KNOWLEDGE GAPS AND TO INCREASE INTERDISCIPLINARY COOPERATION Professor in Sustainable Dairy Production (co-finansed by Arla) at ANIS Tenure-track in soil carbon and greenhouse gas emissions (co-financed by AGRO) Senior Scientist Lorie Hamelin (INRA, France) to write paper on DK biogas potential AGRO PhD on nutrient resource management with mussels to meet environmental and economic objectives (co-finansed by Mumipro) at ENVS PhD on Food Waste Based Biorefineries (co-finansed by DECISIVE) at ENVS PhD on bioeconomy as a driver for peatland rewetting and mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions (co-financed by Era-Net PeatWise) at AGRO PhD on extraction and evaluation of protein from macro-algae at FOOD PhD on blue mussels, seaweed and insects for sustainable animal production at ANIS

10 CBIO CAN SUPPORT MORE PHD PROJECTS CBIO Spring 2018 PhD-application - deadline April 10th The content of the project should be relevant for the development of circular bioeconomic solutions The project should include an interdisciplinary aspect and ideally include more AU institutes in the work The project outcome must be valuable to society and/or industry
