A REVOLUTION FOR THE GREEN AND CIRCULAR ECONOMY
The project
IonioFuel and AgriSolare, designs and builds a plants that convert farm manure and organic waste into renewable energy by a process that is environmentally friendly and financially rewarding.
The heat released during the electricity generation process can be used locally or deployed in a district heating system. The residue from the fermentation process can be used as a high-grade natural fertilizer.
The groups idea is to use "Power-to-gas" (or P2G), a process that allows the convertion of electrical power to a gas fuel. This technology consist in splitting water molecules into its hydrogen and oxygen component by electrolysis. After that, the hydrogen is combined with carbon dioxide and convert the two gases to methane (natural gas) using methanation.
The methane, produced by the described plant, will contribute to making the qatarian LNG supplies to the LNG storage and regassification terminal in Crotone (Italy) 10% organic.
