Location

Duration

Feasibility Study for Energy Production from Organic Industrial Waste

Greece

1997

The project concerned the production of energy from biomass in the Attika area. The biomass will be generated from the organic fraction of industrial waste produced by food and beverage industries, slaughter houses and livestock operations. In particular, the energy will originate from the biogas produced during the anaerobic fermentation of the organic fraction of the waste. The production of energy is supplemented with the production of compost (the solid output of the fermentation, combined with other porous material, such as paper and wood). The produced energy will be sold to the local public electric utility and also cover the energy needs of the plant itself. The compost will be sold in Greece and abroad. The proposed investment, has overall the following targets: (a) production of energy from a renewable source, (b) protection of the environment by means of a complete system for industrial waste management, (c) full utilisation of the industrial waste with the additional production of compost material, (d) indirect energy savings by means of the production of organic compost. Expected investment around 16 mECU.
