The technology relates to the field of water-soluble cannabinoids. Cannabinoids have become an important global commodity, and found their place in the food & beverage, food supplement and cosmetics industry, but also elsewhere (e.g. pharmaceutical industry). The major inherent problem related to cannabinoids is their very low water solubility. Our invention provides cannabinoid and hemp resin water solutions, with increased stability and bioavailability.

The invention describes a process for microwave-assisted chemical recycling of PUFs to polyether polyols by acidolysis or aminolysis, and the process for purification of the recovered polyols.  

Zeolites are crystalline sodium aluminosilicate materials with a 3D microporous structure. They are used as catalysts, ion exchangers and adsorbents due to their unique properties such as crystallinity, thermal stability, large specific surface area, ordered microporous structure, presence of catalytically active acid sites, ion exchange properties and ability to selectively separate according to molecular size. ZSM-5 is one of the most widely used zeolite catalyst (T/year, income in mio EUR/$).

BiAR (Biomass Ash Removal) process is capable to separate the organics, which are valid for energetic uses, from inorganic components, which are a limitation for energetic uses but however, contain valuable elements.

The invention relates to chemically inducible split protein actuators (CISPA), particularly to their design, manufacture, structure, and uses. The method of engineering CISPAs utilizes ligand- binding proteins or protein domains originating from humans or other organisms, which are rationally split into two fragments that reassemble only in the presence of a cognate ligand, which is typically a small molecule. The designed CISPAs can be used to regulate cellular processes such as gene expression, conditionally reconstitute of the function of a…

Invention provides a synthetic method to prepare functional macroporous scaffolds composed entirely of synthetic polypeptides by emulsion templating. The materials are distinguished by highly interconnected macroporous morphology and tailored physical and chemical properties.

Due to the growing concern about the environmental footprint of plastics, one of the key trends in modern polymer science is the development of materials that not only possess useful properties but also have inherent (bio)degradability and/or are derived from renewable resources.
