3. ABOUT WRAP WRAP’s vision is a world without waste, where resources are used sustainably. We help businesses, individuals and communities reap the benefits of reducing waste, developing sustainable products and using resources in an efficient way.
4. DIAD introduction & origins MARKET R&D Pilot scale DIAD
5. DIAD introduction & origins June 2011 Action 32 AD Action Plan November 2012 DIAD: Round II launched October 2011: Industry workshop November 2011 DIAD launched
6. Programme Partners
7. DIAD Round I: Work Streams Small Scale AD: • Reduction in installation costs • Simplification of running / constructing small scale AD plants Optimisation of AD at all scales: • Make AD work better, quicker and/or more cheaply Technologies which standout from the crowd
8. Process flow: 3 Stages Challenge Fund Applications: Asked for details. Feasibility Studies commissioned: 19 projects selected Full scale demonstrations: Successful projects likely to be supported into demonstrations
9. Criteria for initial application 1. Near to market, not R&D 2. Evidence to support technology / concept 3. Market pull 4. Technology transfer 5. Innovative 6. Commercialisation plans
10. Round I: Diversity in the feasibility studies 19 commissioned: 6 small scale and 13 Optimisation Variety demonstrates the level of research and innovation occurring in the field of AD, within the UK.
11. Demonstration Phase From the 13 Optimisation and 6 Small Scale studies 8 may progress to full scale demonstration. Its purpose: • To establish parameters • Benefits at the full scale • De-risk the technology post demonstration • Cost benefit analysis • Industry visits • A business case for approaching the market
12. Demonstration: AWS Burdens
13. Demonstration: Cranfield Uni Determine the potential increase of renewable energy production when enriching anaerobic digesters with different CO 2 inputs
14. Next Steps – DIAD Round II
15. DIAD Round II: Work streams Scaling Technology Enhancing Digestate Economically Using Heat from AD Proof of Market, AD Technologies
