Emschergenossenschaft and BRAIN are researching potential uses of carbon streams in wastewater through biotechnological processes. This should increase the energy yield and allow special oils for use as high-performance additives in the lubricant industry to be obtained. The joint research program is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) as part of the strategic alliance ZeroCarbFP (ZeroCarbon Footprint). Alongside its research in the field of wastewater use with the biotechnology company BRAIN, Emschergenossenschaft is the coordinator of this nine-year ongoing alliance, worth 48 million Euros.
