Advanced Carbon Materials from Biowaste: Sustainable Pathways to Drive Innovative Green Technologies (GreenCarbon)

Start date: Oct 1, 2016, End date: Sep 30, 2020,

The energy crisis, environmental pollution and global warming are serious problems that are of great concern throughout the world. Around 40% of the world’s energy consumption is dedicated to the production of materials and chemicals. Thus, there is a need to develop high-performance materials based on renewable resources, simpler to synthesise and cost effective. Carbon materials derived from ren ...

Flexible Superheated Steam Torrefaction and Grinding of Indigenous Biomass from Remote Rural Sources to Produce Stable Densified Feedstocks for Chemical and Energy Applications (SteamBio)

Start date: Feb 1, 2015, End date: Jan 31, 2018,

"The objective of SteamBio is to demonstrate a mobile processing concept that will enable efficient pre-treatment of agro-forestry residues for use as flexible feedstocks in chemical and process industries. These ligno-cellulosic materials originated from rural locations will be upgraded and densified into uniform sizes at source, allowing cost-effective transportation to existing industrial sites ...

Sewage sludge reuse Phosphate recovery with an innovative HTC technology (HTCycle) (HTCycle)

Start date: Jul 1, 2015, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

Efficient municipal wastewater treatment produces vast amounts of sewage sludge. The latest data show a yearly production of 9.637 thousands of tons in Europe. Sludge treatment issues are often neglected in comparison with water-related parameters which results in serious technical difficulties and highly expensive disposal methods. An energy efficient, environmentally sound and economically viabl ...

Biomass based energy intermediates boosting biofuel production (BIOBOOST)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

Increasing the share of biomass for renewable energy in Europe demands conversion pathways which are economic, flexible in feedstock and energy efficient. The BioBoost project concentrates on dry and wet residual biomass and wastes as feedstock for de-central conversion by fast pyrolysis, catalytic pyrolysis and hydrothermal carbonisation to the intermediate energy carriers oil, coal or slurry. Ba ...
