Anaerobic digestionAnaerobic digestion Combustion/GasificationCombustion/Gasification
Biogas production Most common No drying Long degradation
rates/retention time Technical know-how High OPEX and CAPEX
Combustion Good LHV Drying necessary Emission (particles, SOx,
NOx)
Gasification Good LHV Drying necessary Versatile Low environmental impact High electrical performance
