The project involves the final process design of a full-scale plant for continuous prodiction of second-generation bioethanol based on results from the IBUS pilot plant, where straw is the basic
The project aims to enhance current knowledge of how temperature and pressure during the production process and the water content of biomass affect pellet quality, and of the mechanical properties of
Through contacts to key players in the biofuels market, various means and policies are considered to identify the most apporpriate package solutions. The results will be used by the European
IEA task 42 identifies existing biorefineries and process potential, prepares common definitions and standards for classifying and assessing technical, financial and environmental advantages and
Methods are devised for online control of biofuel pellet quality using, for instance, mechanical durability, fine particles, pellet density and length and particle size as parameters. The new methods
The project enables Denmark to resume its activities in the IEA implementing agreement on hybrid and electric vehicle (IA-HEV), dealing with, for instance, electric cars with batteries and fuel cells
These two projects continue the publication of the eight-page news magazine Bioenergy Research with six issues a year. The magazine goes over new research results and features debate-triggering and
One of the current topics of the IEA’s cooperation on research in fuel wood chips is forecasts of fuel resources, technical production, wood fuel transport, valuation, long-term storage of decomposed
Process optimisation is performed at the MaxiFuels pilot plant at DTU in the context of, for instance, membrane distillation of ethanol, separation of the permanent residual fraction from glucose
The Castor plant’s gasification reactor is developed to gasify wood pellets instead of wood chips, and an aesthetic and technically efficient design of the plant is developed for adaptation into a
During the project, investigations and development has been performed, focusing on an evaluation of the overall feasibility of gasification of solid biomass in general.
In the present project was investigated how and to which extent the effluent from the biogas process has to be purified in order to recirculate this stream as process water in the MaxiFuels process
Due to difficulties in achieving data, consistency in data, and concensus on data as expected and agreed in the project outline among the project partners, the project unfortunately could not be
The objective is to synthesise and transfer to stakeholders important international knowledge and new technical information concerning conventional forestry systems for sustainable production of
Analyse the country-level, regional and global potential of bioenergy, forestation and other biomass based mitigation strategies, including implications for the atmospheric CO2 concentration and
As a specific Danish contribution during the project period, the Bioenergy Group at the University of Southern Denmark updated the report ‘Source separation of organic fraction of household waste’.
Dust will be produced during production and use of wood pellets. The most critical situations will be identified and changes in routines and equipment will be suggested. Both central heat plants and
