Abstract

The scope of the Valsovit project is the sustainable valorization of the wine industry byproducts. In particular, the main goal is the upgrading of marcs, grape seeds, stalks and of the heads and tails mixtures obtained by ethanol distillation processes to valuable chemicals and intermediates such as polymers, cosmetics or agrochemicals. The team is composed by many partners, both from academy (Terra&Acqua Tech, CIRI-EA) and industry sectors (Caviro S.R.L, Eridania Sadam, AmbrosiaLab, CBC Europe, CRPA Lab and L.E.A.P). This joint venture intends to investigate the entire process of the waste upgrading, starting from the preliminary purification treatments until the industrial scale-up of the processes developed, studying also the environmental impact of the new products and reactions. In a changing raw materials landscape, the Valsovit project is an example of how, what it was considered previously as waste, becomes a primary source of different valuable products.
