Vellinge, Sweden on September 10th, 2015
3rd Inter Baltic Biogas Arena and IBBA Workshop on Pretreatment of Lignocellulosic Substrates for Biogas Production
September 10th, 2015
Over 50 participants came to Ängavallen in Vellinge, Sweden to network with participants from several different Baltic Sea countries. The speakers gave a very good insight into recent research and new technologies regarding pretreatment of lignocellulosic substrates for biogas production. We would once again like to say thank you to our sponsor Landia GasMix.
