Project summary

ReLEAF will formulate, produce, and demonstrate agronomic and environmental performance of safe, sustainable, and efficient Bio-based Fertilisers (BBFs) that can compete in the European and global fertilisers market by optimising, integrating, testing, and validating innovative technologies to efficiently recover and deliver agronomic added-value ingredients (nutrients and biostimulants) and other relevant products (biopolymers) from widely available bio-wastes, while creating new value chains and reducing the environmental impact linked to urban and agri-food wastes and the agriculture sector.
Role of alchemia-nova
As part of the ReLEAF consortium, alchemia-nova plays a key role in bridging technical innovation with stakeholder integration. Its responsibilities include the operation and coordination of the bioreactor demonstration site in Vienna, supporting the real-life testing of bio-based fertiliser production from food and agricultural waste. Moreover, alchemia-nova leads the social acceptance assessment of the project’s innovations. Through its interdisciplinary expertise, the team supports co-creation activities and the transition towards regionally adapted, sustainable fertiliser value chains.
