Title

biogeniV - bV-B1 Residual material drying – Analysis of processes for processing biogenic residual materials for further thermochemical use

Funding bodyBMFTR/PTJ
Duration08.2025 - 07.2028
Project partnerCosun Beet Company GmbH & Co. KG, mele Energietechnik GmbH
Project leadDr. Claudia Kirsten
Project focus
  • Identification and testing of innovative and energy-efficient processing technologies for dewatering, drying and densification of fermentation residues and other biogenic residues, as well as identification of coupling possibilities, e.g. through waste heat utilisation for thermal drying
  • Assessment of the economic and ecological feasibility of waste treatment, taking into account the coupling of energy and material flows
  • Design of a previously non-existent model plant for residue processing
  • Transfer of the results to establish the entire value chain in the Anklamer EnergieRegio
TitleMOOReturn - Combining peatland climate protection and value creation through peatland revitalisation and paludiculture

Project leadRoman Adam
Project focus
  • Implementation of the most extensive possible revitalisation of drained peatlands and optimisation of water levels in already revitalised peatlands in the Malchin region
  • Demonstration of an economical, residue-free processing method for the industrial-scale utilisation of peat biomass in the Malchin region
  • Holistic verification of the economic viability and positive climate impact of the use of wet moors, taking into account social aspects in the Malchin region
  • Establishment and strengthening of networks through target group-specific communication and knowledge transfer, also based on interactive and digital tools in the Malchin region and at the state level
