Integrating the Concept of Bio-Refinery onto the Biogas Field: the BIOREFILL Strategy

摘要

The paper illustrates the redefinition of the concept of biorefinery and its application onto the biogas field, which is the topic of BIOREFILL, a project funded by Lombardy Region and Fondazione CARIPLO. The layout of the biorefinery is given and compared to the state-of-the-art of biorefineries and biogas plants. The specific focus on the optimal conversion of biomass to syngas and the improvement of carbon conversion ratio using one-step technologies for methanol and dimethylether synthesis is discussed in detailed.
