  • 1: The data source is "Fact sheet for biogas" developed by NIRAS for Energinet.dk in 2012. Aarhus University has validated the data and also provided information about volatile solids and gas potential of the biomasses. The original data can be downloaded from http://implement.nu/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Biogasdatagrundlaget_regneark.pdf. The biogas potential is based on either a mesophilic process (38°C) with 25 days retention time, or thermophilic process (53°C) with 17 days retention time and 10 days in storage tank (10% biogas collected in covered after storage tank).
