HYCON - HYdrogen CONtrol for optimization of methane production from livestock waste

Accumulation of excess hydrogen in the production of biogas from manure is a problem, because it slows down the process. HYCON investigates the influence and distribution of hydrogen in the conversion process and develops new methods for extration of surplus hydrogen in order to make biogas production more efficient.
