The concept of green biorefinery is based on the processing of green biomass into range of innovative products. The basic idea is to use the green biomass in the most optimal way to produce energy and marketable products. Grass silage has versatile properties as raw material for green biorefinery with …

Poland still has a lot of changes ahead that are necessary, especially in rural areas, if Poland wants to reach the climate goals set by the European Union. Bioenergy could be a great option for Poland as it would tackle Poland’s problems with greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution and power interruptions. …

It is a fact that the communication branch has been involved in a big variety of unethical practices. Greenwashing exists because we in communications and our colleagues (mainly our colleagues of course J) made text and communication materials to let the green intentions of a company shine, by not including …

One potential renewable energy resource is green gas production through anaerobic digestion (AD). However, only part of the biogas produced (up to 50-60%) contains the combustible methane; the remainder are incombustible gasses with the biggest being carbon dioxide. These gasses are often not used and …

Cities are becoming increasingly vulnerable to climate change and there is a need for (inter)national knowledge exchange on Best Management Practices (BMPs) in climate adaptation. In semi-structured interviews stakeholders demanded international knowledge exchange tools that are interactive, open source …

Climate change accentuates heat waves in The Netherlands. This, in combination with high nutrient concentrations in Dutch surface waters, is intensifying the proliferation of toxic blue-green algae (cyanobacteria), a threat for the health of the population and ecosystems. Lakes are resources for recreational …

The 'AgroCycle' project investigates whether a cooperation of farms can become self-sufficient in energy and fertilization by using manure and organic waste streams for the production of energy, green fuel and green fertilizers by means of anaerobic digestion (AD). In the project, the project partners …

UNIDO and the Energy Academy Europe (EAE) / New Energy Coalition, a centre of excellence on energy located in Groningen, the Netherlands joint forces to enhance the understanding of innovative energy solutions and to contribute to building new capacities for promoting green industry and sustainable energy …

Directeur Jaron Weishut en een aantal andere medewerkers van het TU Delft bezochten Entrance om hun Green Village project te presenteren. Tijdens dit bezoek werd andersom Entrance en het Centre of Expertise - Energy aan hen gepresenteerd.

Biogas is produced from biomass by means of digestion. Treated to so-called ‘green gas’, it can replace natural gas. Alternatively, biogas can be used to produce electrical power and heat in a combined heat power (CHP) installation. In 2014 global biogas production was only 1% of natural gas production. …
