News

  • NextGenBioWaste Newsletter No 1 is issued (Oct 2007)

  • NextGenBioWaste Conference
    “The First International Conference on Biomass and Waste Com­bustion” will be arranged 8-10 October 2008 in Milan, Italy as a part of the NextGenBioWaste project. The conference will be technical and the progress beyond state-of-the-art on new technologies for retrofit and new combustion plants will be presented.


The objective of NextGenBioWaste is to demonstrate innovative ways of improving the energy conversion and renewable electricity production using municipal solid waste materials and biomass for large-scale supply of renewable electricity and heating/cooling to end-users - at a more competitive cost and improved environmental parameters.

NextGenBioWaste deals with waste and biomass feedstocks and covers the supply chain from fuel preparation, via conversion and residue handling, up to wholesale of energy.
