Economic and energy efficiency of the solid biofuels produced from digested pulp

One of the methods of renewable energy production is biogas plant. Products of anaerobic digestion are biogas and residual material called digested pulp or digestate. This material is commonly used as a fertilizer. One of a new possibility of digested pulp management is solid biofuels production aft...
