Project description
Development of an economically viable method for the fast quantification of the biogas production potential (BPP) of organic by-products treated in an anaerobic (co-)digestion system, based on the chemical composition. Research will be executed with experimental batch and semi continuous tests, validation in full scale plants and finalized with a modelling part, by means of the ADM1 model.
