The Project has received a six-month extension to complete the demonstration stage.
The research activities on Industrial Applications in WP2 are now completed and partners are looking at the engineering and costs of the fully integrated plant. Low-quality waste-derived glycerol has been purified to reach less than 1% ash content.
The materials for syngas generation and liquid fuel synthesis have been scaled and integrated into the pilot plant for the final demonstration. The Eindhoven University of Technology is now ready to start the TRL5 testing.
Finally, during the next M48 general assembly, CIAOTECH will run an industrial workshop in order to put the GLAMOUR technology in the context of biofuel production and existing R&D experiences in Europe.
