Among other biomass fuels, common reed (Phragmites australis) is considered as a promising source for Bioenergy. Within the project “ENIM” partners from science, industry and agriculture develops an integrated process to use common reed from rewetted peatlands for the combined heat and power generation in a biomass CHP plant. Ecologically compatible solutions of the reed production and harvesting will be investigated, the necessary logistic will be developed and finally the process of the power plant will be adapted for the commercial utilization of reed as fuel. The project is supported by the German Federal Environmental Foundation (DBU) and will contribute to a sustainable and ecological land use and an environment friendly energy economy.
