SUSTAINABLE PROCESS INDUSTRY
EUROPEAN INDUSTRIAL COMPETTIVENESS TROUGH RESOURCE AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Project Idea Presentation Zurich University of Applied Sciences
INSTITUTE OF CHEMISTRY AND BIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY ZURICH UNIVERSITY OF APPLIED SCIENCES
The Institute of Chemistry and Biological Chemistry ( ICBC ) at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences runs an application driven research and development program aiming at sustainable and innovative processes and solutions.
Areas of activity include chemical and biochemical engineering, miniaturized and continuous processes, new sustainable processes for existing and new products, chemical and biochemical catalysis, novel materials for applications in several fields.
Resource and energy efficiency, functionalized coating applications, light management, advanced catalysis, tissue engineering, drug discovery, in silico drug design and syntheses, molecularly imprinted polymers, downstream processing proteins, are examples of our main interests. Our cutting-edge technologies, research facilities and highly specialized expertise bring successful collaborations with industry (SMEs, start-ups, large companies) and academia at Swiss and European level.
We create and develop more sustainable processes and advanced materials for industrial applications and green chemistry.

Development and industrial implementation of fast and sensitive technologies for the on-line and real time monitoring of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) for process control
Motivation: Volatile compounds are continuously emitted from products during processing along the whole value chain. These are sensitive markers of such processes and their time-resolved monitoring allows a better control and optimization with respect to quality at each step, consistency, and waste reduction.

• • • Raw material quality testing: traceability and transparency of origins and labelling History of production and processing treatments of intermediate products Age, shelf-life and freshness Safety. Early identification of potential safety hazard Testing and enforcement of legal or safety standards (shelf-life, quality deterioration, contamination); can be used as early warning systems.
Process optimisation Optimal processing for increased quality and reduced input (energy, time, raw materials and ingredients) with the possibility of direct feedback control Reduction of emissions and energy consumption
