The main aim of the Agro-Circle Project is to establish innovative value chain concepts for production of circular materials from agro-industrial side-streams. In addition to avoiding pollution arising from burning of crop residues directly on the fields, which is the biggest cause of poor air quality in northern part of India in winter season, this project will aim developing techniques to produce new bio-based materials from the natural polymers extracted from these farm waste materials.
Lixea Compular, Sweden aims at establishing the production process for cellulose from agricultural rice residue using Lixea's Dendronic Process. Lignflow Technologies, A.B. Sweden along with IIT (BHU)-Varanasi aims to patronize the production of lignin. Vikas Lifecare shall act as instrumental in developing a technology to produce Nano silica from rice husk. Stockholm University & Indian Institute of Technology (BHU)-Varanasi will contribute via chacterization of lignocellulose fractions. In addition, IIT (BHU)-Varanasi, Stockholm University & Bio-Nano will design new bio-based functionalized cellulosic fibres.
