# About ABOWE project

> ABOWE project (Implementing Advanced Concepts for Biological Utilization of Waste, 12/2012-12/2014) was an extension stage of the REMOWE project (Regional Mobilization of Sustainable Waste to Energy Production, 12/2009-12/2012).

## Project Overview
ABOWE (Implementing Advanced Concepts for Biological Utilization of Waste, 12/2012-12/2014) was an extension stage of the REMOWE project (Regional Mobilization of Sustainable Waste to Energy Production, 12/2009-12/2012).

As a direct result from REMOWE, the partnership from six countries continued to work with two promising technologies, unlocking investments with support from the Baltic Sea Region Programme 2007-2013.

## Pilot Plants and Technology
In ABOWE, two mobile pilot plants were built and tested by the partnership within the Baltic Sea Region:

*   **Pilot A:** Based on a novel Biorefinery concept from Finnoflag Oy, Finland.
*   **Pilot B:** Based on a German Dry Fermentation process.

The pilot tests in different countries formed the basis for compilation of investment memos and organization of introductory seminars / investor events. Also the regional model, developed in REMOWE, was utilized to evaluate e.g. the feedstock potentials and climatic impacts of the new processes from the regions’ perspective.

## Project Outcomes
The desired outcome from ABOWE are implementer/investor driven continuation projects targeting full scale plant investments of the two technologies.
