Renewable energy
Bioenergy is renewable energy made available from materials derived from biological sources. Biomass is any organic material which has stored sunlight in the form of chemical energy.
Collaboration partners
We collaborate with several organisations to find solutions for optimised biogas production with higher yields and improved process stability. Our collaboration partners Universities och Institutes
Research
Our research is organised under seven subject areas where we develop knowledge about forest ecosystems and the processes that drive them. This knowledge is then transferred to best forest management

Infrastructures
The research is largely based on the well-developed infrastructure at Vindeln's experimental forests. Our research group and Vindeln's experimental forests cooperate with several national and
SLU Biogas Center
At SLU we work with the whole biogas chain. An unique feature for our research is that we answer questions about both energy generation and waste treatment. We have our own biogas plant as well as
Microbial Biotechnology
Microbial processes represent an important key for the development of a more sustainable and climate-smart society. Through knowledge of these, we can produce renewable value products, such as green
Project SYNAG
The long-term ambition of this project is to understand the role of aggregation of syntrophic microorganisms that can inspire development of biotechnological solutions to improve the productivity in
