Video Summary

Georgia Tech’s Renewable Bioproducts Institute champions innovation in converting biomass into value-added products, developing advanced chemical and bio-based refining technologies, and advancing excellence in manufacturing processes. RBI’s three strategic thrusts are circular materials, bioindustrial manufacturing, and paper, packaging, and tissue. The Renewable Bioproducts Institute was formerly named the Institute of Paper Science and Technology.

RBI serves as a campus conduit for industry-university partnerships and provides a portal to Georgia Tech core laboratories, faculty, and students focused on biomass, bioproducts, and circular materials. RBI is one of ten campus interdisciplinary research institutes.
