BIOSAFIRE goes back to nature to upgrade lignins and tannins, nature’s flame retardants, and unlock them for industrial application of biosbased flame retardants. Starting from already existing pilot plants, BIOSAFIRE upscales and broadens the available feedstocks to provide flame retardant in powder formats for five applications in four different sectors: naval, railway, home appliances and wood coatings. Featuring the same fire retardancy performance as chosen toxic benchmarks and enhancing safety and sustainability with an 80% of biobased content, BIOSAFIRE aspires to not only demonstrate its targets on 5 use cases, but also to create a material portfolio and a set of processing guidelines to enhance flame retardants substitution by the industry. This will open the possibility for biobased resins to exhibit good fire retardant properties. It will unlock a market opportunity worth USD 9.5 billion in 2028where Europe involves a 25% share and the sectors involved in the project 65% of the market share. BIOSAFIRE will design an industrial pilot plant to understand and overcome value chain barriers and create a robust techno economic assessment to promote the market uptake of the project results. BIOSAFIRE is an opportunity to test the EU JRC SSbD framework. The project will use a tiered approach to run the framework iteratively and provide a decision support toolset, link SSbD principles to early conceptual design and ultimately provide a software tool based on HEU SUNRISE methodology. The integration of SSH in the project will allow an enhanced social acceptance, further boosted by the training materials developed during the project.
