Are you wondering how to deal with excess digestate? Would you like access to a potential solution? Are you interested in developing a circular economy? Would you like to develop a new revenue stream for your business? […]
In the framework of the LA project Pocket Power, the greenhouse gas emission reduction potential through farm-scale anaerobic digestion was studied. An anaerobic digestion model was set up and applied to estimate desired methane production in the form of biogas as well as unwanted methane emissions associated with farm-scale digestion of manure. […]

Roadside grass clippings are a problem fraction throughout the 2 Seas Programme area due to their high volume, subject to high processing costs. The industrial sector, however, is interested in the possibility of using roadside grass clippings as an alternative resource for the production of energy and bio-materials. […]
An 800-litre photobioreactor was installed at INNOLAB premises, Oostkamp (Belgium), as part of the Investment site 3 of the ongoing Interreg NWE project ALG-AD. The first phase of construction and water testing was successfully completed during the third week of June. […]

In Flanders, residual flows such as manure and vegetable residues (leek residues, onion peels, etc..) are usually stored and then carried out on the land without further processing. […]
The H2020 project SYSTEMIC will demonstrate a variety of technologies for the recovery of mineral nutrients (N, P, K) and for the production of various (nutrient-depleted) organic soil improvers and fertilizers. The implementation of nutrient recovery technologies allows plant owners to process biowaste into user-specific products for the regional market. […]
The EU is now undergoing an energy transition to replace fossil fuels by renewable energy sources. This transition is aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions, as well as the dependence of EU countries on fossil fuels. Promoting the development of renewable energies brings also an opportunity for waste reduction, as biowaste can be converted into renewable energy. […]
