2nd Inter Baltic Biogas Arena and IBBA Workshop on Methane Emissions
September 4th, 2014
Around 30 participants came to Kiel in Germany to network with participants from seven countries. The speakers gave a very good insight into recent research and market activities regarding methane emissions from biogas plants. We would once agaian like to say thank you to our sponsor Boreal. Below is a picture of the participants at the workshoop in Kiel September 4th 2014.
