Environmental Biotechnology / Bioenergy ZHAW

Our core competencees include microbiological processes for the recovery and utilisation of biomass, organic waste and wastewater to produce higher quality products. The closing of material cycles and the use of renewable energy are the focus of our work.

The work performed in the Centre includes practice-oriented and applied research at laboratory and pilot scales, technology optimisation and feasibility studies.

The Centre has excellent networks throughout Switzerland and internationally. Furthermore, through our involvement with SCCER Biosweet, we are also a part of the Swiss Competence Center for Energy Research.
