Industry in the UK is responsible for the production of 41.1 million tonnes of waste every year, of which food and beverage manufacturing produces 1.3 million tonnes of food waste (DEFRA). Research has demonstrated that reducing levels of food waste is the fourth most effective solution in fighting climate change (ReFED). Additionally, in order to meet the UKGov's Industrial Decarbonisation Strategy and Net-Zero goals it is essential to fully decarbonise the emissions from the Food & Beverage (F&B) and other process industries by 2050\.Biofuel Evolution along with biochemical engineering and synthetic biology experts will work to explore the development an innovative, decentralised energy generation and waste management system, BEBlock.Our innovation will provide process industries in the UK with a localised solution to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions, water consumption and their reliance on external fossil-derived energy sources.BEBlock uses novel engineering biology techniques to convert biogenic residues into biofuels and bioenergy for businesses, organisations, and communities on a decentralised scale. A Microbial Fuel Cell or Bio-electrochemical System will also be designed and integrated to treat BEBlock's effluent and create further value-added products that can be recycled back into the system. Thus, negating the depletion of natural resources and use of energy intensive biomass feedstock. This biochemical and bio-electrochemical concept with highly characterised microbes and electroactive bacteria will be a first of its kind.The outcome of this project will be an experimental proof of concept, BEBlock, that will enable the team from Biofuel Evolution to validate the technology and progress towards demonstrating BEBlock at a trial site contributing towards the UK's net-zero and Industrial Decarbonisation strategies.

英国的行业每年负责生产4,110万吨废物，其中食品和饮料制造生产130万吨食品废物（Defra）。研究表明，减少食物浪费水平是抵抗气候变化的第四大有效解决方案（ref）。此外，为了满足UKGOV的工业脱碳策略和净零目标，必须完全脱碳到2050年到2050年的食品和饮料（F＆B）和其他流程行业的排放量。Biofuel的进化\ .biofuel Evolution \ .biofuel Evolution \ .biofuel Evolution \。英国的行业具有局部解决方案，可减少其温室气体排放，水消耗及其对外部化石衍生的能源的依赖。面积使用新颖的工程生物学技术将生物源性残留物转化为生物燃料和生物稳定的生物企业，组织和社区，以体面分散。还将设计和集成微生物燃料电池或生物电化学系统，以治疗Beblock的废水，并创建可以回收回到系统中的进一步增值产品。因此，否定了自然资源的耗竭和能源密集型生物质原料的使用。这种具有高度特征的微生物和电活性细菌的生物化学和生物电化学概念将是第一种。该项目的结果将是一个实验性的概念验证，即Beblock，BebeBlock，将使团队从Biofuel Evolution从Biofuel Evolution验证验证技术和进步，以验证该技术和进步，以在试验地点促进UK的策略和行业级别的Industrial net-Zeroial Industrial Decariantial Industrial Decarisial Industrial Decarisial Industrial。
