Project Description
The project comprises the expansion and modernisation of the Topinoja biogas plant, and the construction of a biogas upgrading and liquefaction plant.
The Turku plant will be the first in Finland to liquify biogas directly from a biogas production facility, allowing for its use in heavy-duty trucks. In addition to biogas, new types of nutrient and fertiliser products will be delivered to customers.
The expansion will increase the capacity of the plant to about 110 000 t/y of sewage sludge and separately collected biowaste, as well as industrial-side streams.
