Applications of Betaprocess

Betaprocess has primarily been designed as a booster for the production of bio-gas or bio-ethanol. In the near future, however, Betaprocess is expected to play a considerable role in the extraction of bio-components from biomass.

In case of production of bio-gas, Betaprocess provides the best results when processing high fibre biomass with moisture contents around 70%, like energy crops and residues from the food chain and food processing industry. Betaprocess is even suitable for co-fermentation (f.e. manure processing).

In case of production of bio-ethanol, Betaprocess is very successful in processing sugar beet. Use in other ethanol production methods, such as from corn and wheat is still in research, but preliminary results indicate that similar beneficial effects can be realised.
