Project team

In response to the needs of this sector, WAL’PROT will develop cutting-edge solutions for adding value to new sources of protein not only from dedicated crops but also from discarded plant matter, co-products from the agri-food industry and alternative resources (insects and microalgae). The development model envisaged will incorporate a cascade approach to the recovery of all the by-products generated during the protein transformation process, to ensure a multi-sectoral approach.
