GR3
The GR3 (GRass as a GReen Gas Resource) project promotes the use of grass and other herbaceous residues from landscape management as a resource for biogas production. The energy potential of these residues remains underutilized across Europe. Barriers are…
ReciDigest
Intervening in the anaerobic digestion process to achieve a higher biogas production efficiency (more biogas per tonne input into the digester) is one of the primary measures to reduce the cost price of biogas production, to further expand the biogas…
BIOREFILL
Objectives
Produce 2nd AND 3nd generation biomasses avoiding conflict with food production.
Boost technological innovation for energy production to reduce costs, increase crop production for biomass conversion and raise economic return.
Use waste…
Biogas Action
The project’s purpose is to serve as a vehicle for a rapid development of the European biogas/biomethane sector. This undertaking will contribute to the EU 2020 targets, by focusing on the removal of non-technical barriers to the widespread…
Pilots4U
A key challenge for the bio-economy is to bring newly developed molecules and techniques from the lab to the market. The main bottleneck in the innovation chain is the step from technology development to deployment. This step has to be performed first in…
