Sustainable alternative to fossil fuels and chemicals in the making.
How can we use renewable resources efficiently for the production of fuels and chemicals? Replacing fossil fuels with sustainable alternatives, and polluting technologies with clean ones, is a great societal challenge and an important issue facing scientists. This is the central theme of the research of 2015 ERC Starting Grant winner Katalin Barta from the University of Groningen. Her research team has already published several high-quality papers and a patent in this field.
