Abstract: 22nd European Biomass Conference and Exhibition, 23-26 Juni 2014, Hamburg, Germany.

Op 13 april 2017 werden de resultaten van de PPS (publiek private samenwerking) Kleinschalige Bioraffinage gepresenteerd tijdens het ACRRES symposium Biomassa ontrafeld.

The goal of the study described here is to produce a clear, uncoloured protein solution from spinach.

As part of the PPS Kleinschalige bioraffinage project (WP1b), fresh Stevia material was used in the extraction of steviol glycosides using water acidified through conversion of sugar by microorganisms naturally present on the plant.

This report describes a practical comparison of an acidified water extraction of freshly harvested Stevia plants (the NewFoss method) to the hot water extraction of dried Stevia plants, the industry standard.

As part of the PPS Kleinschalige bioraffinage project (WP1b), fresh Stevia material was used in the extraction of steviol glycosides using water acidified through conversion of sugar by microorganisms naturally present on the plant. The extraction was followed by clarification using ultrafiltration and concentration by nanofiltration.

During peak production periods it can be interesting to harvest and silage seasonal organic by-product streams for the production of organic acids such as lactic acid and short-chain volatile fatty acids (VFA).

This report provides background information on structure and diversity of different polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) and on feedstocks for their microbial production.

Direct processing of sugar beets in fermentation, without first having to go through sugar extraction and refinery, potentially lowers feedstock related costs for fermentative products. By combining a heat treatment with a vacuum explosion, the Betaprocess treatment aims to open the sugar beet cells, and it is claimed that it hereby improves the sugar availability, subsequently speeding up the fermentation process.

The Potential Role of  Small-scale Biorefineries  to the Dutch Circular BioEconomy

Turning animal manure into energy generates a leftover product: digester bio slurry. Generally this bio slurry is separated in a solid and a liquid fraction. The use of the liquid fraction bio slurry (LFBS) in combination with residual heat and flu gas from the CHP unit could proof an interesting way to turning LFBS in to valuable biomass locally and thereby reducing the manure processing costs.

This report describes a field trial that took place between 1 July and 2 October 2015 at a Dutch rose veal farm in which a group of 30 calves was fed with formula milk of which 2% of the dry matter was substituted with concentrated freshwater algae.

In 2012 two open microalgae ponds (one indoor and one outdoor, both 250 m2) were built at the ACRRES pilot site in Lelystad.

The activated sludge process is the most commonly used bio-logical treatment technology for municipal and industrial wastew-ater.

In recent years, algae production has attracted increasing scientific interest, mostly because of potential high biomass yields for production of lipids, protein and chemicals.

Within the Implementation Agenda Sustainable Livestock Farming (Uitvoeringsagenda Duurzame Veehouderij; UDV) importanttargetsarethe closure of the mineral cyclesandthe sustainability of animal feed.

Because of a growing world population there is an increasing need for protein production, in addition totraditional agriculture and fisheries.
