FUR4Sustain Action brings together intersectorial representatives from Academia, research institutes, several large industries, SMEs, and governmental organizations.
Additionally represented in FUR4Sustain Action are the Near Neighbour Country (NNC) University of Sfax/Tunisia and the International Partner Country (IPC) Chinese Academy of Sciences/China.
This consortium will bring innovation fostered by tackling old problems (like the case of petrol-based polymers and materials) with new solutions based on novel FDCA
The main objective of this COST Action is to catalyse a synergistic approach for the whole value-chain of 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid and derivatives, aiming concomitantly to boost innovation in the current research & development (R&D) status quo and, moreover, to overcome the scientific, technological and the industrial limitations that hinder the wide deployment of new FDCA products developed in actual market applications.
