ENERGY.2008.2.2.2: High-efficiency medium-to-large scale electricity generation from biomass and waste
The general aim of the present proposal is to promote the energy valorisation of wastes and residues arising from agro-industrial cattle farms and slaughter-houses, also together with some agricultural products (energy crops).
The technology considered is the biogas production by anaerobic digestion of "fresh biomass" and its utilisation for the combined production of electric energy with increased net electric efficiency and heat in co-generation engines specifically designed for using of such a fuel.
The choice of the most proper technologies, the location and the sizing of the plants and the agronomic assessment of the final residues of the process (stabilized muds) are the most relevant problems to be overcome in order to guarantee the technical and economic feasibility of the initiatives taken into account by the project.
In particular, a demonstrative-scale plant will be built near the slaughter-house of Orvieto, a small town in Central Italy, based on a combination of innovative technologies, that will be considered as a "model system" suitable for the participant countries as well as other ones, depending on specific technical and economic evaluations, market researches and recognition of both technical and non-technical barriers existing in each country carried out by the partners.
