Abstract

The project aims to develop cost and energy-effective production systems for co-production of bioethanol and electricity based on Integrated Biomass Utilisation Systems (IBUS) located on existing CHP power stations.

The main features of the novel Integrated Biomass Utilisation System is:

• that is based on simultaneous utilisation of biomass with high lignocellulose content (e.g. straw, waste wood and MSW), producing a surplus of electricity and energy;
• that the ethanol production is integrated with existing power plants. The main objectives are design, construction and experiments on a small, a medium sized and a large pilot plant.

Consortium

The project partners are as follows:

• Elsam (DK)
• Energia Hidroelectrica de Navarra (E)
• Sicco (DK)
• TMO-Biotec Ltd(UK)
• Riso National Laboratory (DK)
• The Royal Veterinary and Agricultural University (DK)
