DE-FOA-0002636: FY22 BETO Waste Feedstocks and Conversion R&D

AIM: This FOA supports two priority areas in the Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) research and development (R&D) portfolio. The first of these priority areas addresses new strategies for energy and resource recovery from waste streams, waste streams including municipal solid waste, animal manure, wastewater residuals and other organic wastes. The second priority area addressed by this FOA targets improved organisms and inorganic catalysts.

Areas of Interest :
  1. Topic Area 1: Municipal solid waste (MSW) feedstock technologies
    1a: Advanced MSW Preprocessing for Conversion-ready Feedstocks
    1b: High Value Co-product Development from MSW
     
  2. Topic Area 2: Robust Microbial Cells
    2a: Overcoming and understanding batch-to-batch and cell-to-cell variability
    2b: Improving the longevity of microbial production
     
  3. Topic Area 3: Robust Catalytic Processes
     
  4. Topic Area 4: Community Scale Resource and Energy Recovery from Organic Wastes
    4a: Feasibility Development
    4b: Feasibility Development and Technology Testing

DEADLINE:
  1. Required Concept Papers: April 18, 2022
  2. Full Applications: June 7, 2022

ELIGIBILITY: EPFL researchers are eligible to participate as subawardee or as a prime (areas 1, 2 and 3) if a waiver is granted.
