From June 5-7, 2024, the 20th International Conference on Renewable Resources & Biorefineries took place in Brussels. The BioSC was represented by several participants. Paul Richter (Bioprocess Engineering, AVT RWTH Aachen) won the poster prize for his work in the BioSC project NextVegOil. The project addresses the microbial production of a palm oil substitute from maize straw. The poster entitled "Capacitance measurement as a reliable and elegant way to online monitor biomass of oil producing organisms" deals with the comparison of online and offline biomass measurement of the oil-producing Ustilago maydis strain used in the project.
