Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme, Italy

The training project VARBA aims to advance the development of Fourth Generation Biorefineries by promoting the valorization of agro-industrial wastes within a circular economy framework. It focuses on optimizing biomass use for high value-added products and energy generation through integrated extraction, anaerobic digestion, and composting processes.
Students will gain hands-on experience in biomass characterization, innovative analytical methods, and biological process validation. The initiative fosters sustainable innovation and collaboration among partner universities, supporting future projects and continued research in biomass valorization.
