Summary

Introduction to the diversity of plant biomass. The module will present several examples of industrial products/resources obtained from plants. Examples will include the use of ligno-celluloses, starch, oils and proteins from both land and marine plants for the production of energy and materials. The opportunities and difficulties of working with biological material (diversity, variability, production, harvesting, extraction etc.) will be discussed, as well as the choice of appropriate analytical techniques for evaluating biomass quality. The contribution of plant biomass to a bioeconomy and the different types of biorefinery and line products will be presented.

Educational goals

- Present the different kinds of land and marine plants that can be used in a biorefinery. - Describe the opportunities and difficulties of working with biological material - Describe the contribution of plant biomass in a bioeconomy - Present the different types of biorefinary and land products.
