Industrial biotechnology:
Biorefining:
Use of enzymes or microorganisms for
the production of chemicals, medicines,
materials/polymers or fuel.
Use of renewable biomass as feedstock
for sustainable manufacturing of
chemicals, materials or fuel.
May also comprise fermentation related
to food and feed.
– irrespective of process technology.

Opportunity Summary
Short term opportunities:
 Using microalgae for omega oils for the aquaculture industry and for
bioactive ingredients for the consumer goods industries.
 Using marine wastes as a source of bioactive molecules for the
consumer goods industry.
 Using wood as a feedstock for the production of bulk chemicals and
fuels.
In the medium to longer term:
 The utilisation of lignin from the pulping industry as a feedstock for
high value chemicals production.
 The production of chemicals and fuels from macroalgae.

 Foreninger kan ha ansatte på linje med andre organisasjoner.
 Dersom de ikke har erverv til formål kan de søke skattefritak.
 Foreninger kan også drive næringsvirksomhet og registreres i
moms-registeret.
 Foreninger vil være regnskapspliktige når omsetningen
overstiger 2 mill.
23

Maritim 21 – et eksempel
 Helhetlig maritim forsknings og innovasjonsstrategi 2011-2021
 Mandat fra NHD i samarbeid med MARUT Strategiske Råd:
 Definere visjon og identifisere prioriterte forsknings- og innovasjonsområder, samt en implementeringsplan.
 100 bedrifter og 400 enkeltpersoner intervjuet.
 Visjonsdokument levert NHD mai 2010:
 "Maritim 21 søker å oppnå samspill mellom næring og forskning med
innovasjon som drivkraft."
 7 konkrete anbefalinger – investeringer fra industri og myndigheter –
offentlig andel 505 mill pr år.
 Det anbefales en permanent organisering med ansvar for implementering
og oppdatering av anbefalingene.
