O laboratorium

Biomass accounts for 80% of the renewable energy potential. Use and process biomass for material and energy recovery!

Benefits of collaboration

  • increasing the efficiency of the mechanical and biological treatment facilities
  • reliability of the assessment of the suitability of biomass (of different origin) for biological processing (composting, methane fermentation)
  • reliable verification of the biogas potential of biomass with unknown quality parameters directed to a biogas plant (biodegradable waste)

We invite the following to cooperate with us:

  • entities active in waste management and in the use and processing of biomass for material and energy recovery purposes;
  • operators of biomass bioprocessing facilities looking for ways to increase the productivity and efficiency of their systems.
