State Secretary for the Environment Dr. Andre Baumann opened the SmartBioH2-BW demonstration plant in Rheinfelden (Baden), the Fraunhofer IGB reported. The biorefinery was built at Evonik’s industrial site as part of the project coordinated by the Fraunhofer Institute for Interfacial Engineering and Biotechnology IGB. It uses rinse water and residues generated in production to produce “green” hydrogen and organic raw materials using two coupled biotechnological processes. Test operations are now starting under real conditions.
