Funded by EU Horizon 2020, BRISK2 aims to improve the success of international biofuels research and  implementation.

One of BRISK2’s main activity is to provide researchers from around the world with access to biological and thermal biomass conversion facilities across Europe by facilitating Transnational Access (TA).

The vision of BRISK II is to establish a centre of excellence in the field of 2nd and 3rd generation biofuels via the uniting of leading European research infrastructures.

• Databases generated within the project will serve as a valuable resource for academia and industry.
• Joint Research Activities will yield a manifold improvement in the characterisation of feedstocks for thermochemical and biochemical conversion processes, tying micro-scale and macro-scale phenomena in novel ways.
• Enhanced measurement techniques will lead to significant gains in process flexibility and reliability.
• New biorefining approaches are intended to explore novel process combinations, ones that cannot be tested without a concerted effort between project partners.
• Assimilated data and knowledge will be input to simulation tools for use in a broad spectrum of analyses.
• Transnational Access supports the biofuels research community through the availability of high-quality installations within a well-structured framework.

One of BRISK2’s main activity is to provide researchers from around the world with access to biological and thermal biomass conversion facilities across Europe by facilitating Transnational Access (TA). Eligible researchers can apply to utilise the unique facilities and expertise of any BRISK2 research partner outside of their home country. Funding is available for short-term experimental research visits, along with a capped grant for travel, accommodation and subsistence.
