Syngas modular Units Providing Renewable Energy from Multiple wAstes and for different useS
Many EU countries are net importers of oil and gas (in 2022 the EU’s natural gas import dependency rate was 97 %), and thus particularly exposed to energy reliability and market volatility risk. EU natural gas production is continuing its decreasing trend. As such, the EU Agenda ambitious objectives, together with the external dependence on natural gas, imply that green gases such as bio-syngas are essential in the energy transition.
SUPREMAS in this framework is determined to advance the European technology leadership in bio-energy development, fostering decentralized gas systems development and contributing to the energy transition for different use cases.
SUPREMAS outcomes will enable circular value chains where multiple residues, discarded from different processes, will be valorized providing electricity, heat and cooling and new materials.
SUPREMAS will develop cost-effective modular and movable syngas production units particularly suitable to treat sewage sludge, digestate and the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (MSW) as well as a Decision Support Tool designed to guide decision-making and impact assessment. Environmental sustainability, and technical-economic viability of the proposed solutions will be validated through a demonstration campaign in two different EU countries (Spain and Portugal).
A deep replicability assessment will be done, and pre-feasibility analysis developed in 10 further Demo sites across all over Europe. 6 Co-creation workshops will be organized to promote stakeholders engagement and communities involvement thus unlocking barriers and making SUPREMAS replication real.
