We are a pioneer and driver of bioeconomy research. We create the scientific foundation bio-based circular economy.
Breakthrough: ATB researchers develop fast-processed peat substitute 🚀
Hydrothermal carbonisation is used to refine biomass in a process similar to that of a pressure cooker.
The result: high-quality artificial peat, produced within minutes.
