We’re at @DTUtweet in Denmark for our 4th General Assembly! 17 partners are here to review progress on biomethane research, discuss case studies, align strategies, and plan next steps. 📸 Check out some snapshots of our work! #Biomethane#Innovation#Sustainability
@airliquidegroup presenting the sustainability charter ♻️ and criteria on biogas they developed together with 🐼 @WWFEU@WWFFrance, in which we gave our humble contribution in the scientific 👨🔬backgrounds at the @European_Biogas biogas conference in Brussels.

Is one #duckweed species more suited than the other to grow on pig #manure? 🤔
That is what we are assessing in a series of tolerance tests! Spoiler alert: yes, it seems some species are better for this application 🤩
We hope to publish these results soon, so follow us for more
🌍🍽️On #WorldFoodDay , FOLOU emphasizes the urgent need to reduce #foodloss at the primary production stage to protect the environment and enhance food security. The FOLOU partners are dedicated to building more sustainable food systems.

Happy #WorldAlgaeDay!
To celebrate these amazing organisms, we would like to share our new addition dedicated to our algae research: a laminar flow hood 🤩
It is already being used for our experiments on recycled nutrients to increase the sustainability of algae cultivation💪
🥁 Big announcement! Join our Nov 6 webinar at 4 PM on the progress of SEMPRE-BIO. Discover case studies on wastewater, green waste, and manure transformation into energy and CO2 valorization. 🌱Stay tuned for details. #SEMPREBIO#RenewableEnergy#GreenEnergy
Hosted by @BETA_TechCenter, @NutriBudget_ had its annual project meeting last week to discuss progress and closer collaboration, as part of their ambition to develop an integrated #nutrientmanagement platform 💪

Our PhD student, Marie Lambert, gave an oral presentation at the #RETASTE conference on introducing #duckweed as a novel crop in Flandres!
One of our current challenges is the preservation of duckweed, as it contains a lot of moisture. One promising solution? Ensiling💡
We are evaluating novel bio-based #fertilizers in the #Renu2cycle project
The performance of mineral concentrate ammonium sulfate, pig urine, and the liquid fraction of pig slurry is being compared to conventional mineral fertilizers in pot trials🤩

Last week #WalNUT_eu held a parallel session called 'Turning Waste water into Resources: Cutting-Edge Technologies for Sustainable Nutrient Recovery“' at ESNI 2024 in Brussels
The focus was on #nutrientrecovery technologies that are being developed within the project.
🌟Day 2 of #ESNI2024 kicked off with Dr. Evi Michels (@ugent ) setting the stage.
Mauro Cordella (DG ENV) spoke on "Environmental Footprint Methods," sparking engaging Q&A.
@LudwigHermann followed with insights on reconciling the Green Deal & economic systems.
Stay tuned!🚀
Can our phosphorous-rich bio-based #fertilizers from the #digestates of tomato waste and cow #manure substitute commercial P fertilizers?🤔
We are testing this in a pot trial with beans!
Curious about the results? Stay tuned for updates

Our hosts for the #ESNI2024 Conference on 18 & 19 Sept in Brussels are @Laia_Llenas and @Erik_Meers. They will guide the 100 participants through 4 key notes, 9 parallel sessions, 4 pitches, a poster session and networking.
You can still join us via biorefine.eu/esni-2024/
📢New paper out!
This research investigated the hydrothermal carbonization of digestates derived from the anaerobic mono- and co-digestion of pig manure and ensiled maize. The treatment reduced potential environmental impacts of these products 🤩
