Gasification of Biofuels and Recovered Fuels (GAS BIOREF)
Start date: Dec 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2014,
This proposal aims to demonstrate the utilisation of a wide range of biomass feedstocks in an innovative energy conversion scheme. More particularly, it is proposed to convert equal proportions of app. 25000 tons/y of Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF), derived from a planned MSW recycling facility and biomass (from energy crops) to electricity and heat in a Bubbling Fluidized Bed (BFB) gasification power ...

Demonstration of a MULTIBARRIER as a sustainable approach for the prevention of groundwater contamination by leaking landfills and multipollutant contaminated sites : a cheap alternative to landfill reinstallation and/or leachate treatment (MULTIBARDEM)
Start date: Nov 1, 2006, End date: Aug 31, 2010,
Background
Groundwater is the main source of drinking water in Europe and its contamination by polluted soils or as a result of landfill leaching can pose a major threat to the environment and human health. The Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC) and the Groundwater Directive (80/68/EEC) stipulate improvements in water and groundwater quality by the ye ...

In Situ Metal Precipitation for remediation of groundwater contaminated with non ferrous metals (INSIMEP)
Start date: Sep 19, 2005, End date: Sep 18, 2009,
Background
The majority of the around 1.5 million soil-contaminated sites in Europe are polluted with non-ferrous metals. In many cases, this has led to the contamination of groundwater with metals such as zinc, cadmium, cobalt and nickel. In Flanders alone more than 5 000 sites contained groundwater that is contaminated with metals.
Currently, the best ...
