Line<\/strong>: Industrial Decarbonization Projects
Execution period<\/strong>: 2023 – 2028
Scope of work<\/strong>:
– Industrial decarbonization
Divisions<\/strong>:
– Environment – gas purification
Participants<\/strong>:
– KALFRISA
– University of Valladolid \/ FUNGE
– Barcelona Metropolitan Area (AMB)
– AERIS Environmental Technologies
– FCC-Environment
– Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC)
Abstract<\/strong>: Development of innovative technology for the reduction of non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOCs) and CO2 in mechanical biological treatment plants (MBT), using a rotoconcentrator and thermal or biological degradation. The aim is to minimize emissions and energy consumption through the use of biogas and the reuse of CO2 in greenhouses.
Result<\/strong>: Emission purification technologies were implemented and validated in real conditions, developing solutions such as biological filtration and pollutant concentration. In addition, progress was made in the digitalization and automation of the associated industrial processes. <\/p>\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n
