PYRAGRAF – Decentralized pyrolytic conversion of agriculture and forestry wastes towards local circular value chains and sustainability

Project objectives:

The PYRAGRAF project aims to create a mobile, all-in-one system to showcase the conversion of agricultural and forestry waste into valuable products through pyrolysis. The project will seek to develop changes in agro-forestry practice for the production of tailored low-carbon products that meet the ambitious requirements of policies and strategies set out by the EU.

Łukasiewicz – PIT will be mainly responsible for assessing the techno-economic, environmental and social impact of the project results. The assessment will be carried out through the development of a detailed techno-economic analysis to assess the feasibility of implementing the project, as well as a detailed life cycle study to assess the social and environmental impact (e.g. acceptance by local communities, greenhouse gas emissions).

The task will be implemented through the following specific objectives:

• O6.1 An assessment of the technical and economic feasibility of the proposed pyrolytic solution.
• O6.2 Assessment of the impact on sustainable environmental development through life cycle analysis.
• O6.3 Analysis of the social impact (particularly on rural communities) of the project.
• O6.4 Optimisation of business and production processes (methodology in accordance with the BPMN 2.0. standard).
