Upscale and demonstration of a integrated novel microwave pre-treatment system for efficient production of biogas from anaerobic digestion of pig manure to create a sustainable waste management system (biowave)

Start date: Apr 1, 2016, End date: Mar 31, 2018,

Ashleigh Farms Limited are successful pig rearers for the pork meat industry. Currently they own over 1,500 sows that produce a combined total of 37,000 pigs per year. The pig farming industry is significant across Europe and it is increasingly becoming more and more difficult for pig farmers to be profitable and competitive. There are numerous legislations that are inhibiting the ability for pig ...

Advanced Microwave Plasma Gasification of pig and cow manure for cost-effective biogas generation (PLAGASMIC)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2014,

"The livestock sector in Europe is facing a problem: The manure it generates cannot all be used as fertiliser because excessive amounts of manure to land can lead to surface and ground water contamination through the accumulation of minerals in the soil, as manure contains high amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus. The EU has legislated to place severe restrictions on the quantity of organic manure ...

Mobile Microwave Pyrolysis Plant turns Biomass into Fuel Locally (MicroFuel)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: May 31, 2012,

Around 15 million private forest owners own about 60% of the forest land in the EU. Privately-owned forests have an average size of 13 ha, but the majority of them are less that 3 ha in size. This group supplies the raw material for the forest based industries with the help of 492,000 people employed in forestry. Forestry and forest-based and related industries employ about 3.4 million people. Eur ...
