The project "WaysTUP!" has a duration of 42 months and is funded by the Horizon 2020 Programme. The project is about turning urban biowaste into biobased products. Being a component of circular economy, the focus is on turning urban biowaste into a recourse to be used again. Specifically, the project is designed to showcase a portfolio of new processes that convert urban biowaste from different feedstocks into biobases products; for example fish and meat waste, spent coffee grounds, household seperated biowaste, used cooking oils, etc. These processes will result in the production of food and feed additives, flavours, insect protein, coffee oil, bioethanos, biosolvents, bioplastics and more. The Hellenic Society for the Protection of Nature is one of the 27 partners, among 10 countries that are member states of the European Union.
