Biorefinery

In the decentralised biorefinery, residues from both crop cultivation, e.g. from rewetted sites, and animal husbandry can be put to further use and be recycled. Here, for example, fibres can be obtained from operational and regional residues such as surplus grass from landscape conservation or fermentation residues.
A further focus of work in a second expansion stage will be the diversification of residual material treatment using a modular biogas system if residual materials can no longer be valorised or used elsewhere in the company. This is to be digitalised and largely automated using a real-time capable integrated sensor platform.
