OUR NEWSLETTERS
The sixth newsletter was released at a time when due to the war in Ukraine high gas prices were adversely affecting fertiliser prices. The lead editorial examines fertiliser prices, the compelling arguments for greener fertilisers, and the potential of bio-based fertilisers to find new and cleaner ways to substitute the reliance on fossil fuels for fertiliser development. There is no food security without mineral fertilisers. This and other Consortium news and research is showcased in the newsletter.
The fourth and fifth newsletters were combined to cover most of the project’s news for 2021, the second year of the Corona virus pandemic lockdowns. The Consortium made-up for the cancelled events by focusing on news blogs and videos that covered key research, and other results. Some consortium members even managed to meet in person at the EFIB Forum.
Read the third edition (Corona-style) of the SUSFERT newsletter now, which showcases our highlights in these difficult times and shares some exciting news.
The second edition of the SUSFERT newsletter gives an overview of achievements within the first year of the project since May 2018 and an outlook into the upcoming activities and events.
A special edition of our SUSFERT newsletter was published on September 24th 2019. This time around we had a celebration to announce since this newsletter was sending out the first public deliverable of the SUSFERT project D1.4 from Marc Spiller and colleagues from the University of Antwerp.
Very proud to announce our first SUSFERT newsletter (April 30th 2019)! Giving you some background info on what SUSFERT is, what happened in the first year of research and what is about to happen soon.
SUSFERT in the MEDIA
BOKU magazine features SUSFERT and the Green Chemistry paper titled: A biobased, bioactive, low CO2impact coating for soil improvers in an article written in German by SUSFERT partner, Renate Weiss, and Sabrina Bischof, titled: “Lignin aus Wertvoller Rohstoff: Die Weiterverarbeitung von Abfällen der Industrie zu innovation Anwenden”, December 2021, page 8. The article can be viewed HERE.
The SUSFERT blog based on the SUSFERT scientific paper published in the Royal Society of Chemistry’s Green Chemistry paper titled: A biobased, bioactive, low CO2 impact coating for soil improvers attracted the attention of the US Industrial Biotechnology journal and was featured in the December 2021 edition which is available to its subscribers.
