Valorización de biomasa agroforestal mediante peletización y generación térmico-eléctrica por gasificación

Description

Thermochemical gasification of agro-forestry biomass to produce syngas and renewable energy from agricultural residues.

Sector

A1.6Support activities to agriculture and post-harvest crop activities

Needs/ Problem statement

Large amounts of agricultural and forestry residues remain underused, while the sector needs sustainable solutions to convert this biomass into renewable energy carriers.

Objective

To develop and demonstrate technologies to convert agricultural biomass into syngas through gasification, enabling its use as a renewable energy source.
