The „InnoAquaTech - cross-border development and transfer of innovative and sustainable aquaculture“ project brings together 20 partners from research and technology & development, as well as associated partners from four South Baltic states (Lithuania, Poland, Germany and Denmark) with the aim of promoting the further development and transfer of knowledge in the field of innovative sustainable aquaculture technologies in the South Baltic region.

In Germany, one dedicates to aquaponics, a resource-conserving combination of aquaculture with the production of plants. The combination of aquaculture with the rearing of micro-algae is the focus of attention in Denmark. In Poland, possibilities for the production of shrimp in recirculation aquaculture systems are explored, while in Lithuania the researchers investigate how excess waste heat from geothermal power plants can be used for aquaculture.

www.submariner-network.eu/projects/innoaquatech

In Germany, the combined production of warm water fish and plants (aquaponics) is explored in the „FischGlasHaus“ of the University of Rostock focused on the production of African catfish with different crops. The project focuses on the optimization of nutrient dynamics.

Other research areas are the quality of the fish and plant production, the animal welfare in aquaponics, the production safety (prevention of harmful germs) and the reduction fertilizer consumption. Finally, it has to be proved that the aquaponic production in Germany, especially in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, can also be economically viable.

In order to enhance the applicability of new technologies in aquaculture and aquaponics, a web-based interactive decision support tool is being developed at the University of Rostock within the framework of the InnoAquaTech project, with which interested parties can obtain an overview of the advantages and disadvantages of different production technologies.

Along the South Baltic Sea coast line there are many beautiful places, small coastal fishery harbours, which are nearly unattended and not touristically utilised. The project “Fish markets” aims at valorisation of these significant potentials for further developing the South Baltic region into a sustainable tourism destination. To attract more tourists to the region, partners will set up several events and new offers, e.g. fish markets, fish sales days or fish season events, especially in spring and autumn, to prolong the tourism season. Qualification and training courses will be provided to stakeholders and the project will support the image- and destination building in the SB area, as an attractive tourism destination, based on the potential of small coastal fishery and its heritage. A joint cross-border marketing strategy and diverse tools will be developed and implemented to attract tourists and inhabitants to visit the fishery harbours in the SB area.https://geo.uni-greifswald.de/lehrstuehle/geographie/w i r t s c h a f t s - u n d - s o z i a l g e o g r a p h i e / a k t u e l l e -forschungsprojekte/fish-markets/

The project Low Carbon Logistics (LCL) aims to establish low carbon logistic structures in four locations within the South Baltic region. They should serve as examples of best practice in order to guarantee the widest possible adaptation in the long term. Therefore, the project analyzes the current preconditions (flows, type of goods, stakeholders, guidelines, etc.) and develops a joint low carbon logistics concept for towns and rural areas. In its last stage, the project will start the active implementation of the determined measures and solutions. The whole process is designed to be continued after the project towards a holistic low carbon logistic area. To achieve this, LCL is accompanied by extensive public acceptance measures, the development and recommendation of business models related to low carbon logistics as well as the creation of an international label for low carbon logistics institutions. As one outcome of the project, an international consultancy structure for low carbon logistics in institutions and locations in the South Baltic region will be established. This consultancy structure will offer active support to actors interested in low carbon logistics solutions.

www.lcl-project.eu

As the law and policy expert in the project, the University of Greifswald will be responsible for securing the compatibility of potential concepts and the pilot projects with the legal framework in each of partner regions. To do so, the legal frameworks for logistical solutions in each region needs to be analysed. For this purpose, EU laws, national laws and regional regulations need to be taken into consideration. Regulatory changes will be proposed if necessary. The university also develops “Green Policy Instruments” for low carbon logistics solutions in the different regions. These instruments are designed to help local authorities to fulfil climate protection goals. Moreover, the university is responsible for the management of the international expert team consisting of six project partners and the correspondent development of consultancy offers.

The project “bbvet – Boosting business integration through joint vocational education and training” running since 2016 is defined as a transnational research and development project increasing the internationalisation of vocational education and training (VET) in the Baltic Sea Region.

The international project partners are NetPort Science Park from Sweden, Rietavas Tourism and Business Information Centre and Plunge Technology and Business School from Lithuania, University of Szczecin from Poland, CELF from Denmark and University of Rostock from Germany.

The project BBVET strives for development and piloting internationally recognised and ECVET-certificated educational programmes within the sectors “Green Media/ EdTech” and “Blue Mechatronics”. This offer intends to increase the mobility of South Baltic professionals, primarily focusing VET apprentices as participants of the project, to promote entrepreneurial thinking and acting within the framework of international networks and to develop a “global occupational competence”.

www.bbvet.eu

The Chair of Business, Economics and Entrepreneurship Education at the University of Rostock is also working on the development, pilot testing and evaluation of modularised interregional training modules to achieve an international qualification and professionalisation of VET educators.

Within the bbvet project validation procedures and instruments on the basis of ECVET criteria will be developed. ECVET is an EU wide standard for comparison of international vocational education and training.

One of the most important objectives is the development and establishment of institutionalised expertise and network structures to strengthen, support and organise professional/ occupational mobility processes for target groups involved in VET, in particular students in initial VET, participants in continuing VET, as well as VET educators. These structures should lead to the establishment of regional mobility agencies in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.

Additionally, an inventory of the status of existing treatment technologies will be made available. This information will aid WWTPs and authorities in a future implementation of the most suitable advanced treatment technology.

The main outputs of MORPHEUS are recommendations for actions on how to reduce chemical burden, roadmaps for investment in advanced treatment technologies at selected regional wastewater treatment plants, training courses on basic pharmaceutical analysis and advanced treatment technologies for target groups as well as awareness raising among consumers.

MORPHEUS is coordinated by the Kristianstad University (Sweden), project partners are EUCC – The Coastal Union Germany, University of Rostock (Germany), Gdansk Water Foundation (Poland), Gdansk University of Technology (Poland), the Environmental Protection Agency (Lithuania) and Klaipeda University (Lithuania).www.morpheus-project.eu

Within work package 3, the University of Rostock will analyse the regional consumption patterns of pharmaceuticals towards the South Baltic Sea. Herein, the emission of chemical burden in receiving waters will be investigated by the use of mass flow analysis tools to estimate in- and outflow loads of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Firstly, related data for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern will be collected, such as information on the WWTPs (location, technical treatment), sale of pharmaceuticals in Germany, demographic data and on the river systems, and then implemented in a model. This will serve as a basis for an adapted analysis according to the available data in the case study regions in Poland, Lithuania and Sweden.

The term industrial symbiosis is used when traditionally separate companies and industries work together in a collective approach to physically exchange materials, energy, water and by-products with a mutual competitive advantage. Aim of the European project „Urban Baltic Industrial Symbiosis - UBIS“ is the sustainable use of biogenic resources as well as waste and residues and to reduce emissions at the same time. In order to achieve this, tools for industrial symbioses are developed, five pilot projects are being carried out and experiences distrubuted. This should sensitize decision-makers and initiate new symbiosis projects. Economic aspects and business models are also included in the tool box. This promotes sustainable implementation, which aims to achieve a long-term reduction in the environmental impact of industrial processes and an increase in regional value added.

The project involves 10 partners from 5 countries. The total budget is 1.97 million euros (ERDF funds: 1.55 million euros). It started in January 2017 and runs until December 2019. First results are presented in June 2017 at the Rostocker Bioenergieforum.

A technical report is prepared which summarizes the most important technologies and describes examples of existing industrial symbioses. Also the role and possibilities of public administration are analysed and best practice examples of the partners and possible business solutions are brought together in a toolbox. This should be used in order to assess existing and identify new industrial symbioses.

ASW is responsible for the development of a directory of existing industrial symbioses, which should contribute to the dissemination of knowledge between project partners and beyond and is basis for the planed Baltic study tours.

ASW cooperates with its associated partner „County Nordwest-Mecklenburg“, which supports the development of the tool through its own experience.

Im südlichen Ostseeraum gibt es zahlreiche schnell wachsende Unternehmen, so etwas Werften, Offshoreunternehmen, Häfen, F&E-Unternehmen oder Hersteller von Hochleistungstechnologie für die maritime Wirtschaft, die jedoch bislang durchweg auf lokaler oder nationaler Ebene aktiv sind. Trotz intensive Lobbyarbeit und Unterstützung von Seiten der regionalen Behörden im Bemühen um eine intensive Entwicklung des maritimen Sektors und anderer mit dem “blauen” Sektor verbundener Branchen, ist immer noch ein Fehlen internationaler Instrumente zu verzeichnen, die den südlichen Ostseeraum in Gänze hinsichtlich der Bewerbung von KMU auf dem internationalen Markt unterstützen. Die Internationalisierung der „blauen“ Wirtschaft durch geeignete Instrumente und die Einbindung von Unternehmern, Wissenschaftlern, Politikern und Praktikern wird die Organisation eines Wirtschaftsaustauschs erleichtern und künstliche geographische Barrieren beseitigen.

Nach Bereitstellung von Geldern für die Projektanbahnung durch das Programm arbeitet Rostock Business nun von September bis Dezember 2016 an der Entwicklung eines neuen South Baltic-Projekts mit. Die Kernidee des geplanten Projekts ist es, die Stellung der Schiffbaubranche im südlichen Ostseeraum gegenüber Wettbewerbern aus Mittel-, West- und Südeuropa zu stärken. Auch hier sollen die Unternehmen stärker in internationale Markaktivitäten eingebunden werden. Außerdem gilt es, den Sektor als wichtige Säule der regionalen Wirtschaften sichtbarer zu machen und Dienstleistungen und Anbieter weltweit zu bewerben.

Im Rahmen der Projektentwicklung betreute Rostock Business eine Delegation des polnischen Leadpartners Amber Expo, der Messegesellschaft der Stadt Gdansk am 1. Und 2. November. Intermare wurde aktiv in die Zukunftskonferenz der Maritimen Industrie der IHK eingebunden und konnte sich dort mit einem Stand präsentieren. Begleitend wurde ein Gedankenaustausch mit dem Maritimen Cluster und Lloyds Register organisiert. Bis zum Jahresende wurde ein Vollantrag entwickelt werden und im Dezember 2016 eingereicht. Das beantragte Projekt wurde im Frühjahr 2017 bewilligt und hat am 1.7.2017 seine Arbeit aufgenommen

BioBIGG hat die Mobilisierung des Innovationspotentials bei der stofflichen oder energetischen Nutzung nachwachsender Rohstoffe (NaWaRo) zum Ziel. Bei dem Projekt stehen biogene Reststoffe und Kopplungsprodukte sowie die Produkte aus der Kaskadennutzung im Vordergrund, die im südbaltischen Raum große Potentiale besitzen. Materialien dieser Wertschöpfungsketten können in einer Vielzahl von innovativen Lebensmitteln, Non-Food-Produkten und in Energie umgewandelt werden. Durch grenzüberschreitende Interaktion mit KMUs und anderen Stakeholdern wird das Projekt neue Erkenntnisse und konkrete Lösungen für neue Produkte, Prozesse und Geschäftsmöglichkeiten identifizieren und weiterentwickeln. Die Ergebnisse werden in Pilotvorhaben und Investitionen umsetzbar sein. Zudem wird ein transnationales Bioökonomie-Netzwerk die Kooperation weiter ausbauen. BioBIGG wird seit August 2017 für 3 Jahre gefördert.

Die Fachagentur Nachwachsende Rohstoffe e.V. (FNR) ist der Projektträger des Bundesministeriums für Ernährung und Landwirtschaft (BMEL) und für die Umsetzung des ‚Förderprogramms Nachwachsende Rohstoffe` des BMEL zuständig. Zusätzlich verfügt die FNR über Gelder aus dem Energie- und Klimafonds für Forschung und Entwicklung im Bioenergie-Bereich. In diesem Zuge betreut sie fachlich und administrativ die entsprechenden Forschungs-, Entwicklungs- und Demonstrationsprojekte. Die FNR verfügt über ein breites Wissen im Bereich der Bioökonomie, das sie wiederum durch den Wissenstransfer im BioBIGG-Vorhaben in MV und im Interreg South Baltic Programmraum bereitstellen wird. Zudem strebt die FNR eine Vernetzung mit Akteuren der Bioökonomie über die Landesgrenzen hinaus an, um auch Entwicklungen außerhalb Deutschlands für nationale Akteure zur Verfügung zu stellen. Neben der Wissensaufarbeitung und dem Erfahrungstransfer leitet die FNR in BioBIGG den Aufbau einer transnationalen Kooperationsplattform. Das Seedmoney Projekt erwies sich als effiziente Anschubfinanzierung für die Projekteinreichung.

Idee des LiveLagoons Seed Money Projektes ist die Vorbereitung eines Vollantrages zur Thematik „Living Barriers“, der ausgewählte Küstengemeinden im südlichen Ostseeraum mit der Technik schwimmender Matten (mit Wasserpflanzen) zur lokalen Wasserklärung vertraut zu machen. Dabei soll eine etablierte Technologie an die lokalen Bedingungen der südlichen Ostseeregion angepasst, die Wirksamkeit vor Ort getestet und auf weitere Standorte übertragen werden. Die Technik soll zur Attraktivitätssteigerung für Bevölkerung und Touristen beitragen. Außerdem soll das Bewusstsein für nachhaltige blaue Wachstumschancen in der Ostseeregion verbessert werden, die auf der Erprobung innovativer grüner Technologien basieren. Im Projekt wird auch die im Ostseeraum entwickelte Idee des Handels mit Nährstoffquoten aufgegriffen (Projekt NutriTrade) und gemeinschaftlich erarbeitet, wie die „Living Barriers“ als effektive Nährstoffminderungsmaßnahme Einsatz im Nährstoffhandel zwischen Verursacher (z.B. städtische Kläranlage im Einzugsgebiet) und Nährstoffentzug (Gemeinde mit „aktiven/lebenden Barrieren“) finden können. Dies ist vor allem für die Haffe als Grenzgewässer relevant, da hier der Eintrag und Entzug von Nährstoffen über Ländergrenzen hinweg erfolgt und ein grenzüberschreitendes Management notwendig ist.
