CREDIT is one of six partners in the BioMara project, a six million Euro INTERREG IVA funded collaboration investigating the development of sustainable fuels from marine biomass.
CREDIT’s role is to investigate extraction and characterisation of oils from algae and investigate small-scale anaerobic digestion technology development. CREDIT has four staff members dedicated to researching routes to biogas and bioethanol from marine biomass. This includes characterising the marine biomass available around Irish, Northern Irish and Scottish coasts; it adds to the overall research effort being coordinated by the Scottish Association for Marine Science in Scotland.
Further information can be found at the BioMara website or contact Paul MacArtain for more information.
