The UK Government recently set targets for "net zero emissions" and "zero waste" as well as a 10 Point Plan for a Green Industrial Revolution. Even so, the UK currently sources, processes and deploys advanced materials based on unsustainable practices, including the use of fossil fuels and scarce, geologically hindered raw materials. This contributes to over 30% of the UK CO2 emissions, especially considering the import of raw precursors and materials. Our vision is to build our most important functional materials from bio-based resources which are locally available. These materials will lower CO2 emissions, helping the UK to reach the targeted zero emissions by 2050 while boosting high-performance, locally available technologies and creating new industries. They will form the cornerstone for a modern technology-dependent economy.This programme grant brings together the best UK academics and key industrial partners involved in the development of a new supply chain for sustainable materials and applications. We will accelerate novel pathways to manufacture advanced materials out of available UK bioresources while boosting their performance working with stakeholders in key industrial sectors (chemical industry, advanced materials, energy, waste, agriculture, forestry, etc). The combined food, forestry and agricultural waste in the UK amounts to approx.26.5m tonnes each year. There is no valuable economic chain in the UK to allow waste valorisation towards high value-added materials. Yet, by mass, functional materials provide the most viable route for waste utilisation, preferable over waste-to-energy. This Programme Grant will thus enhance the UK's capability in the critical area of affordable and sustainable advanced materials for a zero carbon UK economy, providing multidisciplinary training for the next generation of researchers, and support for a nascent next generation of an advanced materials industry

英国政府最近制定了“净零排放”和“零废物”的目标，以及绿色工业革命的10点计划。即便如此，英国目前仍在基于不可持续的做法来采购、加工和部署先进材料，包括使用化石燃料和稀缺的、受地质影响的原材料。这占英国二氧化碳排放量的30%以上，特别是考虑到原材料和原材料的进口。我们的愿景是从当地可用的生物基资源中构建我们最重要的功能材料。这些材料将降低二氧化碳排放，帮助英国在2050年前实现零排放目标，同时促进高性能、本地可用的技术并创造新的产业。该项目将汇集英国最优秀的学者和主要的工业合作伙伴，共同开发可持续材料和应用的新供应链。我们将加快创新途径，利用英国现有的生物资源制造先进材料，同时与关键工业部门（化学工业，先进材料，能源，废物，农业，林业等）的利益相关者合作，提高其绩效。英国每年的食品、林业和农业废物总量约为2650万吨。在英国，没有有价值的经济链允许废物向高附加值材料增值。然而，就质量而言，功能材料提供了废物利用的最可行途径，优于废物转化为能源。因此，该计划赠款将提高英国在负担得起的和可持续的先进材料的关键领域的能力，以实现零碳英国经济，为下一代研究人员提供多学科培训，并为新生的下一代先进材料行业提供支持。
