The project aims at strengthening the capacity of Baltic Sea countries to climb the waste hierarchy and meet the various EU directives. RB21T will directly target and assist 30 decision makers on the local/regional and national level about to realize a waste management investment, drawing on the latest research and Best Available Technologies (BAT).

New tools & methods have to be developed and implemented. Dissemination of best practices/technologies; analysis of biomass potential in partner regions from D,AT,I,SL,HU; stakeholder dialogue; material flow, land-use & value added chain management are fields of RUBIRES.

Dissemination of best practices/technologies, Analysis of biomass potential (& trade), stakeholder dialogue and a Transnational Action Plan as well as a Transnational Forum will help design a transnational coordinated bioenergy policy. The Network 4Biomass supports international cooperation beyond the partnership of bioenergy expert agencies in D,A,CZ,HU,I,P,SK,Sl.

Production cost of bioethanol can be reduced by co-localization or integration with an existing industry infrastructure such as a pulp mill or an oil refinery and/or by integrating conversion processes and equipment to co-produce bioethanol and other value-added products from biomass in a biorefinery. The main objective of this project is to develop new pre-treatment techniques that will reduce the overall production costs for fuel-ethanol from Nordic lignocellulosic biomass.
