After an initial phase focused on launching the project and building a strong technical and organisational foundation, Waste2Green is now entering its second period with a very clear objective: to turn that early work into tangible, demonstrable results with real projection.
The Journey So Far: Building a Strong Foundation
Over the first months, the consortium invested substantial effort in structuring coordination, aligning methodologies, defining internal procedures and activating the project’s first technical lines of work.
Much of that effort may be less visible from the outside, but it has been essential to prepare the ground for a much more dynamic phase, where technical validation, scaling and exploitation will take centre stage.
Phase 2: Microalgae Biotechnology in Action
During this second period, Waste2Green will continue advancing its core mission: transforming agro-industrial wastewater into high-value solutions through microalgae biotechnology. This includes further progress in:
- Wastewater valorisation
- Consolidation of pilot cultivation and biomass processing systems
- Continued work on biostimulant-oriented applications,
- The development of the Digital Product Passport framework to support traceability and regulatory compliance.
Moving Towards Visible Results
In practical terms, the project is now moving into a decisive stage. The focus is increasingly on showing, more clearly and more consistently, how an agri-food waste stream can become a useful and sustainable resource with real application potential. That is at the heart of Waste2Green: connecting innovation, circularity and sustainable agriculture through microalgae-based solutions.
This new phase will also bring stronger communication, dissemination and exploitation efforts, with the aim of increasing the visibility of the consortium’s work and preparing the way for future demonstrators, exploitable assets and transferable results.
With all partners actively involved and a clearer roadmap now in place, 2026 is shaping up to be a key year for Waste2Green to move from foundation-building to visible progress
