ENERGY TRANSITION BY MEANS OF "BOTTOM-UP" APPROACH: PYROSLUDG_EN FOR SUSTAINABILITY AND LOCAL DEVELOPMENT, 2019

It starts from the creation of a territorial HUB, based on the construction of a pyrolysis plant treatment of "local" organic waste components to produce energy, in particular using sludge from civil wastewater treatment.
It transforms the ecological, and economic, problem of waste treatment into heat, electricity and water production, with particular attention to emissions and environmental impact, following the most restrictive standards.
Further winning factors are represented by the research to use the syngas produced in the process in fuel cells and the recovery of the organic residues transformed in agricultural production, as well as the creation of a local energy community.
