Venue

Turning low value industrial residues into biofuels can be both profitable and environmentally friendly. Not sure where to start? Help is at hand with the Scottish Biofuel Programme by providing qualifying businesses with free help and advice from its expert research and commercial partners. Come along to this informative free lunch time event held in collaboration with Interface Food and Drink to meet the Programme and see how we can help you.

The generation of biofuel from low value industrial residues appeals to our increasing care to protect the environment, manage carbon use, and at the same time maintain the benefits arising from our use of fuels – for transport, for power-generation, for heating. This workshop will identify the business value accruing from the generation of biofuels from residues. Together, the positive impact on a company’s bottom-line, its environment, and the demand to manage carbon use are powerful reasons to integrate biofuel processes into your business.

The Scottish Biofuel Programme offers valuable consultancy and support to businesses looking to implement biofuel generation into their business operation. Owing to the Programme’s funding, this support is made available at no cost to qualifying Scottish businesses, and we invite you to join us at this informative workshop.
