2 nova-institut GmbH SME Institute The nova-institute was founded as a private and independent institute in It is located in the Chemical Park Knapsack in Huerth, which lies at the heart of the chemical industry around Cologne (Germany). Key questions regarding nova activities What are the most promising concepts and applications for industrial biotechnology, biorefineries and bio-based products? What are the challenges for a post petroleum age the Third Industrial Revolution? For the last two decades, nova-institute has been globally active in feedstock supply, techno-economic and environmental evaluation, market research, dissemination, project management and policy for a sustainable bio-based economy.
