10 Biogas Redistribution and treatment facilities Organic fertilizer plants Bioslurry, biofibres and other biomasses. Redistribution and surplus treatment as organic fertilizer sale products Electricity, heat and transportation fuels Water environment, Climate combat and odour reduction Further treatment of fibres Digested fibre incineration /gasification Increased utilisation of biogas Local and further distances from the biogas plants gas CHP utilisation and the transport sector * Biogas are biorefinery platforms step 1. - This is the future challenge Need fast tracks, by all new projects Joint biogas plants New plants (examp.) 10

39 Conclusion: - ongoing technology development Cheap carbon sources; identify feedstocks on biogaslocation regional. But it has to be cheap and sustaiable! Manure of any kind; including solid manure types. Grassland products from nature, extensive & intensiv farming Straw and lignocellulosic byproducts incl. bagasse etc. Organic food waste and organic wasted byproducts, close loops, quality standards for recycling org. fertilizers Industrial organic waste streams and byproducts. Recycling but caretaking Aquatic algaes macro/micro & byproducts (have to be developed 39
