The biorefinery was designed and built by the Fraunhofer IGB in Stuttgart. It consists of two coupled process modules for the biotechnological production of hydrogen: fermentative dark photosynthesis by purple bacteria and a two-stage process with microalgae.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“By intelligently integrating these two processes into a combined biorefinery concept, it will be possible to efficiently and emission-free use industrial solid and liquid waste streams\u2014previously requiring costly disposal as waste and wastewater\u2014as raw materials to produce hydrogen, a future energy source, along with other value-added bio-based products,” said Ursula Schliessmann, deputy director of Fraunhofer IGB and coordinator of the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Drawing from practical experience, we can then assess whether an industrial-scale plant would also be economically viable. It is crucial that we have planned for a high degree of automation to enhance the plant’s yield,” said Schliessmann.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The demonstration plant was built as part of the SmartBioH 2 -BW project which is funded by Baden-Wuerttemberg’s energy ministry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
