18 THE FRAUNHOFER CBP’S NETWORKING ACTIVITIES PROFILE Leading-edge BioEconomy Cluster The leading-edge BioEconomy Cluster integrates research and industrial activities relevant to the bioeconomy in Central Ger- many. The cluster’s core objective is the sustainable value cre- ation from non-food biomass such as wood as input for the production of materials, chemical products and energy. The Fraunhofer CBP assumes a pivotal role in scaling up and indus- trial implementation of the production processes developed. www.bioeconomy.de Science Campus Halle – Plant-Based Bioeconomy (WCH) The Science Campus Halle (WCH) pursues the systematic and sustained development of a multi-disciplinary center for plant- based bioeconomy. The WCH thus provides an important base for future applications such as those implemented industrially in the neighboring regional leading-edge BioEconomy cluster, as well as interdisciplinary-trained professionals for industry. The Fraunhofer CBP is an associate member of the WCH. www.sciencecampus-halle.de Competence Center for Wood Composites and Wood Chemistry (Wood K plus) The Competence Center Wood k plus is one of the leading research institutes in the fields of wood composites and wood chemistry. The Fraunhofer CBP is a partner in the COMET pro- gram (Competence Centers for Excellent Technologies), where it contributes its expertise in lignocellulose fractionation and the development of biotechnological and chemical processes. www.wood-kplus.at
