Combine
The utilisation and development of environmentally friendly technologies are key factors for the achievement of the ambitious aims of the EU to increase the share of renewable energies. The energetic utilisation of biomass has an important role, as in…
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…
Digesmart
Although biogas production is efficient at reducing agricultural emission by converting the biomass into electricity and thermal energy (cogeneration), or biomethane, its major weakness is that it produces a digestate with high a concentration of…
Biorefine
The NWE region with its high population density, intensive industrial and agricultural activity producing large amounts of residues, is an ideal testing ground for tackling these challenges. Through the networks from each of our partners and supported by…
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…
FERTIPLUS
Actions
FERTIPLUS assessed scenarios on amount and quality of organic wastes available within the EU to identify and map their potential for recycling nutrients to soil and plants in biochar or compost.
Production processes for compost and biochar were…
INEMAD
INEMAD addressed the question of which new methods and how new arrangements should be developed to restore the recycling within the specialisation context. To realize these ambitions, the leading principle of INEMAD was a triangular enlargement of…
P-Rex
Phosphorus is one essential element of life, which can neither be produced synthetically nor substituted by any other substance. Its importance as plant nutrient is emphasized by the huge amount of more than one million tons of mineral phosphorus annually…
REFERTIL
The key objectives of the REFERTIL project were improving compost treatment systems and developing zero emission biochar technologies at the industrial scale for safe and economic nutrient recovery processes. Beyond the technological development the…
ReUseWaste
ReUseWaste was created dur to the need to improve management and utilisation of organic matter and nutrient resources in animal waste to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, ammonia and odour, as well as to improve energy outputs and limit the impact…
