Abstract

This report proposes an anaerobic digestion (AD)-centred integrated circular bioeconomy system for the production of advanced fuels (biomethane or biomethanol), medium-chain fatty acids (such as caproic acid), biofertiliser and biochar (with potential application for negative emission technology).
