A new paper on results of our research activity on “Characterization of chemically and physically activated carbons from lignocellulosic ethanol lignin-rich stream via hydrothermal carbonization and slow pyrolysis pretreatment” as just been published in the special issue “Feature Papers in Bio-Energy” of MDPI Energy journal. The paper is available at https://www.mdpi.com/1996-1073/13/16/4101 .
It is common knowledge by now: transport is and stays as a big GHG emitter in the EU and worldwide. It accounted for 27% of EU-28 total emissions in 2017, and the sector runs almost entirely on fossil fuel. How this can be curbed? And what will be the expected contributions of biofuel in achieving […]
The 28th edition of the The European Biomass Conference and Exhibition is tacking place this week (https://www.eubce.com). The conference, that this year has gone virtual because of the pandemic, becoming an e-EUBCE, has sterted on Monday with a Scientific Opening Session held by David Chiaramonti, who has been also chair of “The Role of Biomass […]
A technology review on the use of bioliquids for power generation systems has just been released on “Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews” journal. The papers provides also the future perspectives and opportunity in a circular economy context. Among the authors there are Marco Buffi (research engineer at RE-CORD) and David Chiaramonti (RE-CORD President), and other researchers from other universities: Tine Seljak and Tomaz Katrasnik (University of Ljubljana), Agustin Valera-Medina (Cardiff University) and C. T. Chong (Shanghai Jiao Tong University). The paper is an open access publications available at the following link: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1364032120302215?via%3Dihub

The Renewable Energy Consortium for Research and Demonstration (RE-CORD) signed today a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL, www.nrel.gov ) for coordination on thermochemical conversion of biomass for the production of biofuels and chemicals. This agreement will constitute a framework for cooperation and coordination that will […]
We are proud to announce that Biofuel Digest, the most important online magazine in the bioeconomy sector, has mentioned RE-CORD as one of the leading Italian companies operating in the biofuels and bioproducts sector. The magazine mentions in particular our experimental area in Pianvallico, hosting our thermochemical conversion pilot plants, our laboratory fully dedicated to […]
BIO4A will demonstrate first large industrial-scale production and use of sustainable aviation fuel in Europe, and investigate the potential of recovery dry marginal land in Southern EU.
Tomorrow, 23 January 2018, the inauguration of the RE-CORD experimental area will take place in Pianvallico, in the municipality of Scarperia and San Piero, which will be added to the research and chemical-physical analysis laboratory on biomass and bio-products inaugurated in 2011. The event will be attended by the Minister Madia, the Deputy Minister of […]
