Biogas produced through Anaerobic Digestion can be seen as a flexible and storable energy carrier. However, the environmental sustainability and efficiency of biogas production is not fully understood. Within this article the use, operation, structure, validation, and results of a model for the environmental …

Anaerobic digestion (AD) can play an important role in achieving renewable goals set within the Netherlands which strives for 40 PJ bio-energy in the year 2020. This research focusses on reaching this goal with locally available biomass waste flows (e.g. manures, grasses, harvest remains, municipal organic …

The energy efficiency and sustainability of an anaerobic green gas production pathway was evaluated, taking into account five biomass feedstocks, optimization of the green gas production pathway, replacement of current waste management pathways by mitigation, and transport of the feedstocks. Sustainability …

Presentation given for a delegation of professors from India, organized by PUM, to initiate collaboration between the Hanze University and Universities in India.

During the opening of the Hanze Energy Transition Centre or EnTranCe (2015-10-13) posters were on display for the King and for the public. During the opening these posters where accompanied by the researchers to explain their research in more detail if questions did arise.

With increasing world population, more wastewater is produced which all need purification treatment. Removal of pathogenic organisms is important because they can cause problems to human health. This experiment will focus on the removal of human bacterial pathogens. The problem of human bacterial pathogens …

Stricter environmental policies, increased energy prices and depletion of resources are forcing industries to look for bio-based and low carbon footprint products. For industries, flax is interesting resource since it is light, strong, environmental friendly and renewable. From flax plant to fiber products …

Presentation given to a delegation from the University of Oldenburg and the Research company Next Energy to explore fields of collaboration in research topics.

Anaerobic Digestion (AD) process for waste treatment? An integrated approach for a dynamic energy and environmental system analysis of biogas production pathways. Presentation given at Biogas Science conference in Vienna, 27 october 2014 regarding the subject of anaerobic digestion of energy maize compared …

Within the Flexigas project a model has been constructed which can analyze the efficiency, carbon footprint and environmental impact of anaerobic biogas production chains.
