Dear BAPUR colleagues, Carlos Arce, Alberto Coz and Tamara Llano Astuy have published a novel biomass treatment of coffee residues using deep eutectic solvents. You can see all details of our research here:

The treatment of coffee silverskin (CSS), a waste stream from the coffee industry, through deep eutectic solvents (DES) was studied. Choline chloride-based DES mixtures were checked by using a lactic acid (LA) hydrogen bond donor. The effect of time, temperature and biomass:DES ratio on the dissolut...

Participation in the PhD Multidisciplinary Chemical Congress. Tamara Llano Astuy and Paula González González attended the MutiChem Congress with the poster entitled "Turning brewery waste into value: efficient caffeine removal from wastewater using spent grains". In addition, Florencia Sofía Gómez Sánchez attended the BioTechPro Congress, presenting the oral communication entitled “Influence of lignocellulosic biomass processing and fractionation on the development of adsorbent materials for emerging water contaminants,” among other BAPUR contributions that you can check on the BAPUR project website: https://bapur-project.unican.es/240-2/

Researcher Florencia Sofía Gómez from the Green Engineering and Resources group of the Universidad de Cantabria , gave a talk on the occasion of the 10th edition of on emerging pollutants in water and their impact on the environment. The talk was part of the European research project BAPUR “Fully Bio-based Advanced Filtration Systems for Removal of Emerging Pollutants from Water”, which seeks to develop multi-layer filter systems obtained from waste materials to eliminate emerging pollutants. The project is funded by the M-ERA.net call, which promotes sustainable solutions to protect water resources.

This week researchers of the Celise Project attended at the 5th CIAB Congress in Jaén. My parents of the Universidad de Cantabria together with Celise's partners Fernando Bonfiglio from Latitud (Uruguay) and Raúl Comelli from the UNL-FICH (Argentina) presented oral communications and posters relates to: sugars bioconversion, 2G biorrefineries modelling, biomass pyrolysis, fish waste conversion into biodiesel, and steam explosion biomass pretreatment and a poster with all the information of such beautiful and fruitful CELISE project.
