Abstract: REHAP’s 15 partners aim at revalorizing agricultural (wheat straw) and forestry (bark) waste
through its recovery, and primary (sugars, lignin, tannins) and secondary (sugar acids, carboxylic
acids, aromatics and resins) processing to turn them into novel materials, and considering Green
Building as business case. The project will provide reductions in utilization of fossil resources of
80-100%, and energy utilization and CO2 emissions above 30%.
