 | Seeking Moisture Barrier for Flexible Packaging |
|
PepsiCo is looking for novel resins that can co-extrude with their core resins to form a skin layer with high functionality that can anchor metal to film or highly functional coatings which would serve the same purpose. Inherently high barrier coatings that can be applied as primer coating or top coating over metal could also be a solution. |
 | Seeking Materials &/or Technologies to enable technically recyclable Vacuum Packaging for frozen foods |
|
We are looking for any new materials or technologies that can enable the products in our portfolio that are currently in multi-material non-recyclable Vacuum Packaging to be classified as recyclable according to the current Nomad Foods Definition of recyclable (minimum of 90% single polymer type – following CEFLEX Guidance). Specifically, we are interested in: - Recyclable plastic structures that can meet all the functional requirements of vacuum packaging - Coatings or treatments to recyclable plastic films that enable the current functionality of vacuum packaging to be maintained - Alternative recyclable packaging structures that provide the same benefits of vacuum packaging for food products |
| | Seeking Glass Strengthening and Lightweighting Technology |
|
PepsiCo is looking to explore non-plastic alternatives for beverage packaging. One such alternative material is glass. It is currently used as a single use or returnable solution in PepsiCo's portfolio. We are looking for a "Superior" substitute for the existing Soda Lime type of glass bottles. |
 | Process for converting waste, effluents and organic by-products in recyclable materials |
|
Biological process to treat waste, effluents and organic by-products with industrial origin characterized by high biodegradability. This process adds value to convention-al biological treatment processes, integrating their assumptions on the concept of biorefinery, simultaneously allowing reducing and eliminating organic matter and incorporating organic components in added-value mate-rials (lipids, gases with energetic potential, volatile organic acids and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), instead of discharging as primary products to the environment. The invention aims to reduce by 96% the organic matter content of the starting substrate allowing generally meet the discharge criteria set out in the legislation. |
 | Industrial production of humic and fulvic acid from biomethan digestate |
|
Anaerobic digestion is a process able to degrade organic waste to methane using a diverse microbial community. However, not all organics present in the feedstock can be biologically degraded and the undegraded fraction are disposed to fields or incinerated. This fraction, called the digestate, is underexploited and represents an interesting source of humic substances as they remain undegraded during the AD process. Our solution consists of a series of process to extract and concentrate those humic substances, specially fulvic acid. The first step is the mechanical separation of the liquid and solid phases. Then the liquid fraction undergoes a serie of filtration to remove inorganic precipitates, large particules and impurities. Then the concentration is done by reverse osmosis where the water is removed, and the humic substance solution retained. This technology allows a recovery of 60% of the humic substances in a solution containing at least 50% of fulvic acids. Further concentration steps can be done if necessary to obtain a solution with a minimum concentration of 12% w/w. |
 | Artisanal Engineered Soybean-Based Spirits |
|
The Ohio Soybean Council (OSC) has partnered with METSS Corporation to prove that vodka, the purest of spirits, can be produced using soybeans or soybean meal. The result is an exceptionally smooth vodka for a market that seeks innovation. |
