About BBNet

The aim of the network was to act as a focal point to build and sustain a community of academic and industrial innovators in the biomass biorefining field.

About BBNet

BBnet was a Phase II NIBB which amalgamated the Phase I NIBBs: LBNet, P2P and FoodWasteNet.

These networks have built strong research communities and resources covering many aspects of biomass biorefining. BBNet brought these communities together in a single network to build a cohesive and dynamic community that drew on the respective strengths and experiences developed during Phase I.
