One Health Lab
The bioeconomy is not only the set of activities of food, bio-energy, and bio-materials production, but
includes all activities that transform biological resources into other products. In many cases, as in the
forestry sector and in many areas of biomaterial production activities, no processes are involved
biotechnological but biophysical or biochemical, which makes the technical and scientific skills of the Laboratory
absolutely suited to this time of crucial transition, accepting the challenge of integrating the
bioeconomy and the circular economy into a new concept known as the circular bioeconomy. The Demonstrator
to be implemented by the Macronode@UNISI ensures the marriage of innovation (generation of know-
how), quality and sustainability in a multidisciplinary and multiproduct vision (use of know-how)
proposing and using green and bio-based solutions: a model that aims at real circularity, a unicum
in the eco-sustainable life sciences sector nationally and internationally. The experimental laboratory
will be organized as a Bioeconomy Innovation Lab with the aim of creating a platform for the
development of products derived from a waste, capable of making the process of formulating a new
product and put it on the market, connecting the raw material and subcontractor industries, as well as offering the
ability to carry out quality control testing, stability, material studies and realization of product
prototypes.
