Optimizing the Collection, the Processing and the Integrated Recovery of Material and Energy from Green Waste in Germany (Grün-OPTI)
Project
Project code: 03KB107
Contract period: 01.06.2016
- 31.05.2018
Budget: 148,461 Euro
Purpose of research: Applied research
The project focuses on the yet insufficient exploitation of the potentials of green waste as resource for energy production (solid fuel) as well as compost production.
Green-OPTI’s particular focus consists of a comprehensive analysis of the actual state of green waste collection in Germany, of a presentation of treatment and recovery options as well as of the elaboration of success criteria for a “woody green waste value chain”. In addition, relevant influencing factors of green waste treatment with regard to the production of high-quality composts and solid fuels will be analyzed and optimized in cooperation with companies in practice.
