About BRAVA

Turning organic residues into renewable value

This facility supports applied research, demonstration and industry collaboration in anaerobic digestion, bioenergy, digestate-to-fertiliser pathways, and other digestion valorisation technologies. It provides a practical platform for testing how feedstocks, including red meat industry residues, agricultural wastes and other organic feedstocks, can be converted into renewable biogas, biofertilisers, and other valuable products.

What the project does

Transforming organic residues into higher-value products.

This project demonstrates how organic residues can be transformed into higher-value products through anaerobic digestion and bioresource recovery.

Background Of the facility

Accelerating Bioresource Recovery: The Pilot Facility

Organic residues from food, meat, and agriculture offer massive opportunities for renewable energy, nutrient recycling, and emission reductions. However, scaling these waste-to-value solutions requires practical data, clear use cases, and demonstration infrastructure. This state-of-the-art pilot anaerobic digestion facility bridges that gap. By testing feedstocks and converting digestate into commercial biofertilisers, it will provide critical operational data while connecting industry, researchers, and regulators to accelerate adoption.

The long-term aim of the facility is to help develop commercially viable pathways for converting organic residues into renewable energy, recycled nutrients and useful products for agriculture and industry.
