Bio-waste recovery: methanization steps on the gas!

,
Bio-waste is everywhere: in wastewater treatment plants, landfills, farms and local communities. Many stakeholders believe methanization offers a timely solution for treating such organic waste, while also producing energy. At IMT Atlantique, a research team is conducting studies on the viability of these facilities and the biogas they produce. As part of their applied research, they use complex tools involving several disciplines.

COCPIT leads the way in microalgae-based biofuels

,
The COCPIT project’s goal is to develop an advanced and sustainable biofuel solution for the aviation and maritime sectors using microalgae. Sary Awad, Professor in the Energy Systems and Environment Department of IMT Atlantique, coordinates the project. He works on biofuel production processes and characterization. He gives us an inside look at the project along with Julien Prud’homme, head of European projects for the Research and Innovation Department at IMT Atlantique.
