Biomass with relatively high water content and low lignocellulose fibers, such as fruit and vegetable waste, is suitable for anaerobic treatment to produce biogas. In a pilot plant nearby a wholesale market where the fruit and vegetable waste are generated this biogas process is investigated in a decentral biogas plant.
A modular two-stage process with two 3.2 m³ fermenters has been constructed. Thereby the variability in quantity and composition of substrate input is one of the challenges for the operation of such biogas plants. Single substrate charges were crushed and stored in different tanks before they were mixed together in an additional tank to balance the variability in composition. These mixed substrates were then fermented to biogas in a two-stage high-load digester with integrated membrane filtration. Objectives are the development of efficient and suitable small-scale biogas plants which achieve these requirements as well as closing the loops of ma terials by utilizing all mass flows in the process. A fully automated system operation with an "intelligent control system" is one of the aims of the project, because an intelligent substrate management is part of a successful biogas process. Results of the decentral pilot scale biogas plant will be presented. With a hydraulic retention time of 9 - 11 days a degradation level of 90-95% has been achieved with fruit and vegetable waste in the research plant. Project funded by BMBF

In the context of the European Climate Law (EU) 2021/1119), the Governance Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 and the Nature Restoration Regulation (EU) 2024/1991, the KAnG came into force on July 1, 2024.
Transformatives Klimarecht: Raum, Zeit, Gesellschaft

This article contends that climate law should be conceived as inherently transformative in a double sense. The law not only guides the necessary transformation of economy and society, but is itself undergoing transformation.
