Stakeholders involved in the Chester biomass project

Summary

UK-based University of Chester and biomass specialist Arensis will run a new research project to trial a range of new waste feedstocks to feed into a decentralised clean energy power system.

The development aims to discover which waste materials can be redirected from landfill to create electricity and heat for commercial biomass.

A range of feedstocks sources – including rubbish, animal and agricultural matter and commercial wastes – will be trialled at the University’s Thornton Science Park.

The matter will be fed into an Entrade biomass converter housed within a shipping container to study the output of the generated energy. Heat and energy generated by the trial will be used in a clean energy microgrid, to explore the decentralised energy systems of the future.
