The project is focusing on how to build collaboration and network between partner organisations in Sweden, Poland and Ukraine, in the direction of biogas solutions boosting and development of biogas sector in the Baltic Sea Region.

It started with diesel smog and meat processing waste, problems that could be solved with biogas. Today, Linköping is a world leader in biogas, and LiU is home to a national knowledge centre.

Using life cycle analysis, Marcus Gustafsson demonstrates how a system perspective changes the understanding of what truly constitutes a sustainable fuel.

At the BSRC summer conference in Linköping, PhD student Konrad Smolarczyk presented a new decision-making tool specifically designed to support more sustainable choices in the heavy-duty, long-haul transport sector.

Now is the time to invest in the export of Swedish biogas. But perhaps it is primarily knowledge transfer and an understanding of the entire waste management system that Sweden should be exporting.

BSRC is a national competence center for biogas research administered by the LiU. It's base for the development of innovative and resource-efficient biogas solutions often with positive local and regional effects on the environment and the economy.

More Biogas started as a simple study group, and has become a profitable biogas facility that supplies vehicle fuel throughout the Kalmar region, and KRAV-labelled fertiliser to farmers. The latter are also joint-owners in the company.

Alyssa Blumenthal came to LiU in September 2015 on a Fulbright scholarship. Now she is full of enthusiasm about the Biogas Research Center (BRC), LiU, Sweden and energy-related issues. However she is leaving academia for a job in her hometown.

The efficiency of biological, chemical and physical pre-treatments on methane production is being evaluated through a meta-analysis in order to evaluate what pre-treatments alone or combine result in a higher methane yield.

This project aims to investigate if the addition of pulp and paper mill primary sludge to the AD process can improve the dewaterability of the sludge, and thereby increase its use and value on the market.
