Symposium chairs: Jitka Hrbek, Rafat Al Afif, Christoph Pfeifer
Bioenergy will play a significant role in the decarbonisation of our energy systems, especially in aspects where it is difficult to substitute fossil fuels with renewables (e.g. aviation, heavy transportation, …). The symposium will provide a platform for industry, decision makers from politics and especially for researchers to exchange know-how, innovative ideas and production as well as utilization routes. All aspects of bioenergy will be covered such as bio-chemical conversion routes (fermentation, anaerobic digestion, …) as well as thermo-chemical conversion routes (pyrolysis, gasification, combustion, hydrothermal processes), starting from fuel pre-treatment, via processes as well as product cleaning and upgrading until the final utilization.
The presented papers will be invited to submit a full paper to selected journals.
