Within the research area of biotechnology, current work is focused on

Bioethanol (SSF)

• Bioethanol production from annual plants
• Enzymatic hydrolysis
• High solids fermentation (up to 50 wt%)
• In-situ downstream conversion to bio-ethylene

Biogas production

• Biogas from residues
• Biogas from sewage sludge
• Cascade utilisation - recovery of valuable metals

Digestate utilisation

• Separation of fine digestate
• Fertiliser recovery
• Process water recycling

Lignin recovery

• Isolation of lignin from biomass
• Enzymatic recovery of aromatics and chemicals from biomass feedstock/ residues
