Biogas production by dry-fermentation of organic residues, by-products and wastes from agriculture
Description:
Dry-fermentation processes for biogas production find increased interest on farms without animal production. This type of processes are new in the agricultural sector and only few experiences are available. The aim of the project is an evaluation of the technical and economical chances to apply dry-fermentation processes for biogas production in agriculture.
