| dc.description.abstract | Lignocellulosic biomass and organic wastes are the most investigated type of feedstock
used for biomethane production because they are some of the most abundant resources
with wide availability in most countries. It has been projected that a major part of the
European renewable energy production, for example, will originate from farming and forestry
and at least 25 per cent of all bioenergy in the future will originate from biogas, produced
from wet organic materials such as animal manure, whole crop silages, wet food and feed
wastes. In addition, while electricity and heat can be produced by a variety of renewable
sources, the only alternative to fossil resources for production of liquid and gas fuels and
chemicals is biomass. | en_US |
