We work within the paradigm of a circular forest based bioeconomy using a system analysis perspective.
The research group Water-Energy Nexus at Karlstad University contribute to a circular forest based bioeconomy by upgrading low-value sidestreams to raw materials, which are then used for production of useful materials and energy carriers.
Our vision
We research biomaterials using a systems perspective to enable resource efficiency.
