Waste disposal management and the energy crisis are important challenges facing most countries. The fruit-processing industry generates daily several tons of wastes, of which the major share comes from banana farms. Anaerobic digestion (AD) technology has been applied to the treatment of wastewater, …

Overview of Research line 3 in RAAK PRO project "Why Care More" - Professorship of Jan-Peter Nap

In Bhutan biogas energy can be used as an alternative energy for wood to meet the energy demand in the rural populace with effective management and utilisation of the biogas plant. Despite various benefits of biogas technology, biogas adoption has been less than anticipated. As of today, District Livestock …

One potential renewable energy resource is green gas production through anaerobic digestion (AD). However, only part of the biogas produced (up to 50-60%) contains the combustible methane; the remainder are incombustible gasses with the biggest being carbon dioxide. These gasses are often not used and …

Bio-P2M: economic and environmental feasibility

The 'AgroCycle' project investigates whether a cooperation of farms can become self-sufficient in energy and fertilization by using manure and organic waste streams for the production of energy, green fuel and green fertilizers by means of anaerobic digestion (AD). In the project, the project partners …

Research presentation at Sustainable Entrepreneurs Networking Event on new biogas technology and its valorization opportunities in collaboration with Mr Maik van Heerd (Progress Events), professor Jan-Peter Nap (Hanze UAS), Mr Ruud Paap (New Energy Coalition)

Biogas is produced from biomass by means of digestion. Treated to so-called ‘green gas’, it can replace natural gas. Alternatively, biogas can be used to produce electrical power and heat in a combined heat power (CHP) installation. In 2014 global biogas production was only 1% of natural gas production. …

In de afgelopen zes jaar is er veel aandacht besteed aan de ontwikkeling van meetstandaarden voor het siloxaangehalte in biomethaan en opgewaardeerde biogas. Biogas is wereldwijd van toenemend belang als energiedrager. Het vormt een milieuvriendelijk alternatief voor aardgas en draagt bij tot de vermindering …
