Research

A sustainable society requires the presence of biogas solutions, and the Nordic model for biogas addresses challenging waste problems while providing us with renewable nutrients, energy, and raw materials. Cities, rural areas, regions, and corporate value chains all have needs for the products and services of biogas. Our research focuses on the conditions for and societal impacts of biogas, production systems, biogas processes, as well as market and utilization of the solutions' products.

Why biogas?

There are wet organic waste materials such as sorted food waste, waste from slaughterhouses and dairies, as well as manure and residual products from agriculture that are not suitable for any other treatment. At the same time, there is a significant need for renewable gas, especially for transportation and industrial use to replace fossil energy carriers. Additionally, there is another significant need to replace fossil mineral fertilizers in agriculture, where biogas digestate from biogas plants fits perfectly with its renewable plant nutrients.
