The partners of the VALZEO project convened today, December 5th, for their 12-month meeting to assess the ongoing implementation and chart a course for future activities.
The VALZEO project, a collaborative initiative aimed to valorise agro-industrial wastes via the production of zeolite-based composite materials and their use in environmental remediation and biofuel production, has made significant strides in its first year. The meeting allowed the partners to take stock of the achievements and challenges encountered thus far.
During the meeting, participants engaged in lively discussions, sharing insights and experiences that will help steer the project towards its ultimate success. Key topics on the agenda included the progress of work packages in the VALZEO project, along with the key indicators. Additionally, the meeting addressed future secondment plans for VALZEO.
Prof. Roberto Boada at the Autonomous University of Barcelona expressed optimism about the project’s trajectory, stating, ” We emphasised the significance of our collective efforts during this pivotal 12-month meeting. We have seen tangible progress in our mission to valorise agro-industrial wastes via the production of zeolite-based composite materials and their use in environmental remediation and biofuel production, underscoring our commitment to sustainability and environmental innovation. Reflecting on our accomplishments and challenges today, we are inspired to propel VALZEO into its second year with renewed vigour. Together, we are dedicated to driving positive change in research and innovation mobility and leaving a lasting legacy for future generations”.
The collaboration among the VALZEO project partners remains strong and focused on achieving its mission. As the project enters its second year, the partners are committed to redoubling their efforts and working closely to ensure that VALZEO continues to positively impact Agro-food waste in rice husks in the bioenergy sector.
