How can tomato residues become a resource for sustainable aviation? ToFuel’s circular biorefinery approach will provide a concrete example of regional bioresource utilisation at the 20th ESEIA Lecture, taking place online on 3 December 2026, 19:00 - 21:00 CET. Under the title “Bioresources Utilization: Sustainable Aviation Fuels”, the discussion will connect the project’s research with wider questions about feedstock availability, conversion technologies, lifecycle emissions

On 15 September 2026, ToFuel partners met online for a Review meeting to review progress across the project work packages and coordinate the next stages of implementation. Technical activities are advancing across the ToFuel value chain. In WP2 – Upstream, seasonal tomato residues have been collected by Mutti and Podravka, while work on pretreatment, hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) and algae is progressing. WP3 – Midstream continues work on fermentation and lipid extraction,

The ToFuel project will hold its first Local Stakeholder Workshop on 23 November 2026 in Lisbon, Portugal, as part of the 7th ESEIA Conference | Green Energy Solutions: Current and Future Trends. Organised in conjunction with the conference, the workshop aims to maximise stakeholder participation and foster early engagement with the project. The 7th ESEIA International Conference will be hosted by LNEG in Lisbon from 23–25 November 2026. The workshop will gather stakeholder p

The ToFuel Horizon Europe project has published the first edition of its official newsletter, marking another important milestone in the project's communication and dissemination activities. Coordinated by the European Sustainable Energy Innovation Alliance - ESEIA and EEIP, leaders of Work Package 7 – Dissemination, Communication and Exploitation, the inaugural newsletter provides stakeholders with a comprehensive overview of the project's latest developments, research progr

As leaders of WP7 – Dissemination and Exploitation, ESEIA - European Sustainable Energy Innovation Alliance and EEIP - Energy Efficiency in Industrial Processes have been coordinating the communication activities of the ToFuel project since its launch in January 2026, ensuring a consistent visual identity and effective dissemination of the project's objectives and results. These activities are implemented as part of Deliverable D7.1 – Dissemination, Exploitation and Communica

Researchers at UNIZAG-PBF are advancing activities within WP2 - Upstream – Seed pressing, Extrusion, hydrothermal liquefaction and Algae and WP3 - Midstream – Fermentation and Lipid Extraction, exploring innovative pathways to valorise tomato processing residues. WP2 - Upstream – Seed pressing, Extrusion, hydrothermal liquefaction and Algae activity Within WP2, tomato seeds obtained during tomato concentrate production were processed through cold pressing to produce high-qual
