MADONNA: An innovative project towards a sustainable industry
MADONNA project seeks sustainable solutions to reduce the high amount of waste from industrial production that massively affects the environment, transforming the planet's climate. MADONNA explores new chemical reactions to reverse this process in a sustainable way that can be carried out by microorganisms. By doing so, we will be able to convert industrial waste into a resource, reversing the process and closing the cycle of production.
Possible Themes: New-to-Nature reactions, CO2 capture, in silico biology, chemorobots, cyborgised bacteria, synthetic bacteria, sustainable production.
