Biorizon
Overview
Industry driven Shared Research Center, focusing on technology development for the production of functionalized biobased aromatics for performance materials, chemicals & coatings
Biorizon is anticipating the expected growing shortage of aromatics from the petrochemical industry and the widely shared ambition to green the chemical industry.
Our mission is to enable commercial production of bio-aromatics by 2025. In order to achieve this we adopt a multi-disciplinary approach that brings together the entire value chain: in R&D (institutions, universities), global leaders in supply of feedstocks (upstream), chemical conversion, equipment manufacturing (midstream), chemical industry, end-users and brand owners (down-stream). We connect with multi-nationals as well as SME companies.
Biorizon is a cross-border initiative between TNO, VITO, ECN and the Green Chemistry Campus and is part of Biobased Delta. Biorizon is located at the Green Chemistry Campus in Bergen op Zoom, The Netherlands, at the heart of… Shared Research Center Biorizon has state-of-the-art facilities at its disposal. The facilities can be found at the following locations:
Green Chemistry Campus - Bergen op Zoom, The Netherlands
TNO - Delft, The Netherlands
VITO - Mol, Flanders, Belgium
ECN - Petten, The Netherlands
Specifically the laboratories of the TNO Biorizon activities are situated in Delft and at the Green Chemistry Campus in Bergen op Zoom and offer capacity for the lab- and bench-scale process development.
Throughout the last years, TNO has invested in several pilot units at TRL 4/5 for the demonstration of individual process steps in the end-to-end process from biomass to aromatics: a biphasic reactor for the conversion of hemicellulose to furfural, a condensation reactor for the preparation of furfuryl-hydrazones, a Diels-Alder reactor for production of the targeted bio-aromatic compounds.
In specific the following TNO equipment is available:
Bi-phasic reactor
