The project (http://bioraf.cz) addresses the problem of biomass utilization employing the techniques of green chemistry to the high added-value products and energy sources. From the biomass of microbial, plant or animal origin one can by refining obtain food supplements, fodder and fertilizers, biofuel of new generation and energy. Biorefining is a unique way of new sustainable solution of substitution of fossil fuels minimizing adverse effect on the environment while making use of the whole volume of biomass.
