Partner with Nova Scotia
The perfect location for your next bioeconomy site
Existing bioresource operations
Existing bioresource operations generate by-products and waste that can become feedstocks for bioeconomy projects, creating additional value and promoting a circular bioeconomy.
Feedstocks
Feedstocks can include byproducts and underutilized materials from forestry, agriculture, oceans, and municipal solid waste industries.
Bioprocessing
Bioprocessing facilities use novel techniques to convert local raw materials into a variety of both traditional and new, innovative products.
Bioproducts
Bioproducts are sustainable, low-carbon innovative products produced using renewable natural resources from municipal waste streams, agriculture, forestry, and ocean sectors.
Closing the loop
Some bioproducts are compostable and contribute to future growth, and others can be collected and diverted from landfills for reprocessing and reuse.
Why a bioeconomy in Nova Scotia?
Nova Scotia’s bioeconomy is an interconnected, circular economy which uses and re-uses renewable natural resources and waste streams to create innovative value-added products.
The bioeconomy sector in Nova Scotia is booming. A wide network of support organizations, sustainable, reliable, and affordable feedstocks, and state-of-the-art infrastructure are all available throughout the province. Learn more about what Nova Scotia has to offer.
