VTT EXPLAINS: THE SYNGAS PROCESS AND ITS INTEGRATION WITH THE FERMENTATION UNIT

Interview with Ville Nikkanen The syngas production from different biomass feedstocks is the first process step characterising the concept proposed by BioSFerA. Thanks to the exploration of these biofeedstocks from all over Europe, the improvement of the gasification process allows to increase the value of the BioSFerA’s technology according to sustainability and circularity principles. As […]
