There has been an increasing interest in diverting food waste from landfills to enhance renewable resource production due to high greenhouse gas emissions. Sustainable processing...

This study suggests that, in France, the potential of anaerobic digestion (AD) to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions depends on two factors: 1) it must be...

This Regulation lays down operational guidance to be applied by Member States to ensure a robust and harmonised implementation of the risk-based sustainability criteria for the production of biofuels, bioliquids and biomass...

This position paper – developed by members of IEA Bioenergy Task 37 (“Energy from Biogas”) – provides central knowledge and features of biogas and biomethane. The main conclusion...

Several methods are currently used to track the bio‐component of co‐processed fuels including energy/mass balance, yield methods and radiocarbon techniques. The methods used to track or estimate...

This report presents an assessment of the state of the art of key technologies for heat and power from biomass, namely combustion, anaerobic digestion, as well as intermediate energy carriers produced by using...

In this contribution, we propose a quantification of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from wastewater collection, treatment and discharge in Europe, taking into account the use of electricity and reagents, construction of the infrastructure...
