Development of a new production process for biotechnology Hydal

Project goals

The aim of the project is to create a new specific industrial applications / new bioplastic material / using new Czech biotechnology Hydal, which produces PHA biopolymer from used cooking oil. PHA biopolymer is a key feedstock for bioplastics. Objectivesare specified as follows: 1. Finding a new production process for addition of PHB (/ V) suitable for standard plastics processing for film extrusion, 2. Determination of material properties and processing conditions for the preparation of the product specification for the customers. 3. Testing of the production process. 4. Testing of samples in situ in real terms. 5. Creating of documents for the dissemination of the production process

    Vývoj nového výrobního postupu pro biotechnologii Hydal

  • Annotation in Czech

    Cílem řešení projektu je vytvoření nové konkrétní průmyslové aplikace/nového bioplastového materiálu/ při využití nové české biotechnologie Hydal, která z použitého fritovacího oleje vyrábí biopolymer PHA ? klíčovou vstupní surovinu pro bioplasty. Cíle jsou definovány takto: 1. Nalezení nového výrobního postupu pro aditivaci PHB(/V) vhodné pro standardní zpracování plastů pro extruzi folií, 2. Stanovení materiálových vlastností a podmínek zpracování pro sestavení specifikace produktu pro odběratele. 3.Otestování výrobního postupu 4. Otestování vzorků v místě použití v reálných podmínkách 5. Vytvoření produktových dokumentů pro šíření výrobního postupu

Completed project evaluation

  • Provider evaluation

    V - Vynikající výsledky projektu (s mezinárodním významem atd.)

  • Project results evaluation

    The project has developed a unique ecological technology using waste materials, which is also included in a relatively broad concept of the production and use of biodegradable plastics in agriculture, environmental protection and human health. Beneficiaries are required to file a Contract on the Use of Results, which includes the modification of ownership rights to results and the use of results, by 11 November 2016. As of the date of the Final Opponent Control, it was not possible to check the insertion of data into the R & D Information System RIV. The Commission draws the attention of the recipient to the obligation to pass data to the RIV.
