It will not be long before the first trucks on gas grass driving. The Green Deal with HarvestaGG provides an important contribution. The end of 2014 the first Green Deal was completed with the company. There are overcome many obstacles in legislation and scientific research shows that sustainable gas production from grass profitable than expected in advance.<\/p>\n
“The first Green Deal with HarvestaGG was a great success. Although missing the icing on the cake – the realization of the dry fermentation – yet, but in a subsequent Green Deal we realize that, “says Dirk de Jong, coordinator of the Green Deal from the Ministry of Economic Affairs.<\/p>\n
“In recent years were characterized by research, development and innovation. And the creation of space within the legal framework. Gas production from grass by dry fermentation is a whole new process. Special deep-rooted grasses serve as crop rotation on arable land. As a result, the soil is enriched. After mowing the grass is compressed to a press cake. The proteins from the juice are suitable for animal feed and the digestate is used as a substitute for fertilizer, “he explains. “The press cake is added a little water and then put the grass to bacteria in bio-LNG. The bio-LNG is suitable as fuel for trucks. ”<\/p>\n
“All investigations turned out positive,” De Jong. “The quantity and quality of the gas are better than we expected in advance. And in the process to gain protein from grass is patent pending. “For the bottom shows this specially selected grass of value. “Research by Wageningen UR showed that beetroot and potatoes after growing grass grow better. Growing grass ensures that prevent potato nematodes. ”<\/p>\n
In addition, through the Green Deal adapted legislation. “By adjusting the Renewable Energy Scheme temporary grass now also encouraged to serve as feedstock for biogas. This makes it attractive for farmers to grow grass because the crop can be used as greening measure in crop rotation. The mineral legislation is harmonized with the European legislation allowing the nitrate content of the remaining residual meets the standards. ”<\/p>\n
But perhaps the most important success is that the commercial plate is round. For both proteins the biogas a buyer is found. De Jong: “At the location in Flevoland the digester could not be realized, but fortunately other municipalities are very interested. It was decided to build the first dry fermentation in the peat in Ter Apel. Besides the potato processor AVEBE. Before a new Green Deal will be closed. “<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
