Bridging the gap between research and education for bioeconomy

The BREC project connects agricultural schools, authorities and researchers to spread circular agricultural practices among practitioners and test technologies driving circular bioeconomy. BREC identified several key technologies …

ABATE, turning biomass into green fuel

The ABATE project aims to demonstrate the integration of thermochemical and biochemical processes to convert biomass residues into advanced bio-based refinery intermediates for sustainable transportation fuels.

Smart storage and supply of straw for biorefinery

The ambition for a sustainable society free of fossil fuels has increased the demand for bio-based products and consequently, the demand for biomass. Straw is an interesting resource that is not used to its full potential today an…

Digestion of poultry manure, deep litter manure, horse manure

Solid manure is a poorly used resource in Sweden but by anaerobic digestion this can be change. It has the potential to contribute with 1 TWh biogas/year. Furthermore, nitrogen is largely in organically bound form but by digestion…

Residues from cereal production for the Swedish biobased industry

To meet the demand for Swedish biomass in the transition to a bioeconomy, cereal residues are important. Here we wanted to improve knowledge on the chemical composition and methane potential of residues from cereal production, eva…

How Lantmännen creates a completely new feed from grass

Common grass could become a new contribution to the energy transition – and a new source of income for Swedish farmers. Lantmännen is well on its way to successfully extracting protein for pigs and poultry from forage crops. …
