Discover the incredible potential of waste with "Biorefinery: The Waste Transformation Journey"! Led by Assoc. Prof. Yongqiang Liu from the School of Engineering, this interactive exhibit takes you on a fascinating journey where everyday waste, like food scraps, is transformed into renewable bioenergy and high-value chemicals. Learn how the UK generates about 9.5 million tonnes of food waste each year and see how this waste can be turned into valuable resources through processes like fermentation and anaerobic digestion. This hands-on experience will show you the key steps in waste transformation, from sortation and pre-processing to the production of biogas and valuable chemicals.

Visit us on Science and Engineering Day to explore the concept of a circular economy and see how organic waste can be repurposed to power a sustainable and greener future. This exhibit features lab-scale digesters, graphical posters, and interactive games to engage audiences of all ages. Whether you're interested in environmental science, engineering, or simply curious about how waste can be used as a resource, this activity offers a unique and educational experience. Don't miss this opportunity to learn, explore, and be inspired by the innovative world of biorefinery.
