Industry Forum: Putting the ‘U’ back into Biomass to Energy with Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (BECCUS)
Wednesday 6 November, 1.30pm (lunchtime on day 2 of Annual Assembly), Sheffield
Our first Industry Forum will focus on one of the current challenges around industrial emissions, taking a deep dive into bioenergy with carbon capture and utilisation and storage (BECCUS) and looking at the different forms of utilisation of CO2 being explored across industry and academia.
The forum is designed as an opportunity for representatives from the industrial biomass, bioenergy and bio-based chemicals and materials community to discuss technical information and challenges with each other and with academics who have expertise in this field.
Registration is via Eventbrite.
