Bio SNG Güssing
Bio SNG Güssing is a hydrogen project in Austria; recorded capacity: 1 (unit not recorded).
Overview
Statusfirst results reported from 1MW pilot and demonstration unit
Country · regionAustria
Technologyindirect steam-blown dual fluidized-bed biomass gasification with fluidized-bed catalytic methanation
