NL: Green Deal for raw materials and gas from biomass

The Dutch government and leaders in sustainable business in the Netherlands have signed the Green Deal Business for biomass and bio-based gas. In this Green Deal, the industry, the renewable-gas sector, knowledge institutes and the government will work together on the development of a bio-based economy.
The principle of cascading is used to create multiple values: first, the high-quality raw materials, such as minerals, protein and fibres suitable for applications in the industry are extracted from the biomass. Then sustainable energy in the form of renewable gas is generated from the residual product through fermentation, gasification and refining (News Item Port of Rotterdam, 14 April 2016).
