Biomolecules

An important link in conserving and optimizing fossil resources through the use of plant biomass

3BCAR: an asset for biomolecules

Context & stakes

Plants capture atmospheric CO₂; utilizing them as feedstocks instead of petroleum-based materials enables the industry to reduce its carbon footprint.

The implementation of green chemistry and biotechnology facilitates the extraction of these biomolecules from biomass.
The resulting molecules can be incorporated into the formulation of bio-based products.

Biomolecules are essential components of the bioeconomy.

Carnot 3BCAR: a network dedicated to supporting companies

The Carnot 3BCAR, labeled Carnot by French government and lead by INRAE and its partners, is a French structured network offering competencies in the field of valorization of biomass, bioenergy, biobased molecules and biobased materials.
