The aim of the project is development process for sustainable management of winery by-product, which includes the development of environmentally friendly methods for biologically active compounds isolation according to the principles of green extraction and obtaining preparations of defined composition, as well as waste residues disposal as compost and/or animal feed. The extracts will be used as functional supplements to new and/or existing products (partner Kutjevo d.d. range of products) with the aim of creating value-added products. The knowledge gained from this project will be used for the construction of a pilot plant for sustainable waste management of winery by-product.

Expected results:

–    Development of environmentally friendly methods for isolation of biologically active compounds according to the principles of green extraction using alternative energy sources and green solvents.

– Development of environmentally friendly methods for waste residues disposal as compost and/or animal feed.

– Implementation of the obtained preparations into new or existing food products .

– Results dissemination to the industry through the conclusion of I&R contracts (know-how).
