Climate-friendly, environmentally sustainable and resource-efficient production of materials and chemicals is one of the current major challenges that the bioeconomy is addressing. The 11th BioSC Spotlight aims to explore the intersections of green chemistry and the bioeconomy and the contributions of green chemistry to a sustainable bio-based circular economy. Topics include:
Hybrid processes | Enzymatic retrosynthesis | Gas fermentation | Eco-friendly production and recycling of bio-based polymers | Innovative separation technologies | Sustainability analysis and assessment
The Spotlight will take place as a satellite event to the Fuel & Chemical Science Conference 2026.
Agriculture is increasingly facing major challenges: rising labor and resource costs and strict regulations on the use of pesticides. The 12th Spotlight wants to point out how agriculture can still operate sustainably and ensure a secure food supply. Research can help to reduce or completely prevent disease, pest and weed infestation through integrated pest management. Digitalization can facilitate the early detection of pest infestation. Smart and precision farming can help to make agriculture more effective, save time, and increase productivity. Ultimately, the measures must be evaluated in terms of their economic efficiency, sustainability, and effectiveness.
