materials consisting of paper\/cardboard and other materials such as aluminum or plastics. Such materials pose a challenge in the recycling process because clean separation of the cellulose fraction is necessary for recycling the plastic or aluminum fraction. Mechanical separation is often impossible or too costly. The use of cellulolytic enzymes (cellulases) represents an interesting alternative here. These enzymes are capable of completely breaking down the cellulose into glucose and converting it into a solution. The remaining solid material (plastic or aluminum) can then be separated from the liquid. The project is investigating the use of composite materials as a substrate solution for solid-state fermentation with cellulolytic fungi. An alternative approach involves the fermentative production of enzyme solutions, which are then used to hydrolyze the cellulose content of the composite materials. Another project goal is to use the resulting glucose solutions for fermentative purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-ec2e7a44 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-top:0;padding-bottom:0\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized is-style-default\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"605\" height=\"256\" src=\"https:\/\/pfi-germany.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Bild1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19730\" style=\"aspect-ratio:2.3634255020448025;object-fit:cover;width:915px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pfi-germany.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Bild1.png 605w, https:\/\/pfi-germany.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Bild1-300x127.png 300w, https:\/\/pfi-germany.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Bild1-50x21.png 50w, https:\/\/pfi-germany.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Bild1-18x8.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 605px) 100vw, 605px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Fermentative Gewinnung cellulolytischer Enzyme<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Within the joint project, PFI focuses on the treatment of composite materials with defined enzyme solutions and the fermentative use of hydrolyzed cellulose.
