REnescience waste refinery
The main objective of this project was to prepare the first ever REnescience commercial scale demonstration plant to be ready for operation before 2013.
With this project there has been developed a concept, were unsorted garbage can produce a biofluid from the organic content in the garbage, which can be used in an efficient and flexible energy production. Furthermore solid fractions are separated which are suitable for further separation with increased recycling as a result. The project has also demonstrated that REnescience technology is matured for upscaling to full-scale.
In the project the pilot-plant had over 7,000 hours of operation at the treatment of 800 kg waste / hour and the plant's individual process components have been optimized.
The central enzyme portion of the process is shown to function properly, and it has been shown that biogas production from bio liquid is very high. It is based on experience drawn up a detailed baseline design for the upcoming full-scale plant (10-20 T waste / hour)
The move towards commercialization of REnescience technology continues in a new EUDP project focusing on project maturity and design of a business case for a full-scale plant in the triangle. The project is implemented in cooperation with the municipalities in question (Vejle, Kolding, Fredericia and Middelfart).
