Efforts to change road transport is focused on electrifying the transport sector. The main disadvantages of this strategy are that it requires replacing the existing vehicle fleet and an entirely new
The main purpose of this project is to develop and demonstrate an optimized heating plant that will have much higher efficiency and much less CO2 emissions than the heating plants that are built today
HydroThermal Liquefaction (HTL) has proven itself as the most resource-, energy- and cost efficient technology pathway for conversion to liquid fuels of a wide range of sustainable feedstocks
The purpose is to develop a sustainable, operational and commercially viable biofuel to replace currently used fossil-based fuels in the maritime sector. Developments are based on patented.
The aim of the project is to develop ensiling as a method for pretreatment of straw which allows use in biogas plants and ensures a higher biogas yield. Wet or moist straw is treated with ’ensiling
Biowaste2Gas’ laboratory scale model is upscaled to a pilot plant. Following the initial testing, the plant is moved to demo-site for lifetime testing. In parallel, AU documents the potential in
InjectMe develops a biological Power-to-Methane technology that uses electricity and CO2 from biogas to produce biomethane (electrofuel). The aim of InjectMe is to develop a cost-efficient system for
Demonstrating that the effect of using pre-treated low valuable biomasses is an improved capacity of any given biogas plant by demonstrating that the pre-treatment provides the same amount of
The purpose of this project was to improve our understanding of the characteristics and behaviour of char beds both in steady and unsteady operation. The knowledge gained is to be used for
The main conclusions of the survey are: The potential for biogas production from municipal organic waste in Malawi is scarce; The bioenergy potential of the Malawian agro-industries is large, with the
The study tours to Sweden, Finland, Austria, Italy and the USA have given a good insight in how the other countries are establishing the size classification of comminuted fuel.
The project is carried out by representatives of the EFP98 applicants who forwarded project proposals regarding concepts related to energy effective exploitation of waste waster sludge.
In this review a method for evaluation of these technologies is presented together with a spread sheet in which the method has been used for a number of the present conventional technologies. For the
The aim of the project is to encourage the exchange of experience, transfer know how to R and D in connection to extraction and utilization of landfill gas for energy purposes. The IEA-cooperation
The purpose of this work is to develop a dewatering method that can dewater digested manure to a dry matter content that makes it possible to utilise the dry matter for energy production.
Char conversion during gasification was investigated. It was possible to model the conversion rate in a small fixed bed reactor, by using reactivity data. Tar reduction by partial oxidation was
