Operations and Modeling

In the area of simulation and modelling, integration, and pre-engineering of biorefinery processes, CoLAB BIOREF develops customised solutions for the valorisation of production chains.

Activities include process simulation and modelling to assess technical, energy, and environmental performance, enabling the identification of improvement opportunities and resource optimisation. In process integration, different technologies are analysed and combined to increase the overall efficiency of biorefineries, promoting the sustainable use of raw materials.

Furthermore, pre-engineering encompasses the development of detailed techno-economic feasibility studies and the design of solutions tailored to the specific needs of each project, ensuring the implementation of innovative, efficient, and economically competitive processes.
