Abstract:

Project proposes innovative, transdisciplinary approach, by enabling an access to the potential water resources, currently neglected, i.e. water evaporated during drying of high moisture solid fermentation products. Moreover, project is aiming to achieve high synergy by integrating the water recovery with improved heat balance of the drying process and additional utilization of the latent heat, that could be recovered during the water condensation. Furthermore, project proposes to apply the hydrothermal carbonization (HTC), thus bringing the potential for synergy, due to positive effects in terms of dewaterability and sanitization.
The main goals of project : development of technology
