Abstract of NL1023558C
Biomass
fermentation comprises that biomass is supplied to the fermentation tank (1)
by mechanical
displacement of a compartment filled with biomass and located between two
bulkheads. A process for
fermenting a biomass comprises the forced supply of the biomass to a sealed
tank filled with water
and removing biogas from the top of the tank. Biomass is supplied by mechanical
displacement of a
compartment filled with biomass and located between two bulkheads. An Independent
claim is also
included for the fermentation apparatus, in which the biomass feed line (3)
is also used to remove
water from the tank.
