At a time when sustainability and greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction are crucial to addressing climate change, biomethane emerges as a high-quality renewable fuel that triggers positive change in the energy industry and the global economy.
In this context, Cetaqua, the Water Technology Centre, held the event “Challenges and opportunities in the production and use of biomethane” this morning in Barcelona, to present LIFE NIMBUS and other projects related to biomethane. The meeting brought together more than 100 professionals from the public and private sectors and provided an essential forum for discussing progress in the production and use of this key renewable fuel for moving toward a greener economy.
Other presented projects were SEMPRE-BIO, Biomethaverse, Biometagas La Galera, the El Baix Llobregat WWTP Biomethane Ecofactory Project and Elena/Vila-Sana are some of the examples that show how technology and innovation are driving biomethane production.
As a final touch to the event, the attendees had the opportunity to visit the biomethane generation plant operated by LIFE NIMBUS. The visit enabled the attendees to see first-hand how biomethane can be produced more efficiently and sustainably, increasing awareness of the importance of how energy is produced and used. In this particular case, from treatment plant sludge.
