Cover Story: Municipal biowastes, such as the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW) that is collected separately via the biowaste bin, represent important resources for a circular economy. Anaerobic digestion (AD) and composting are the most relevant processes for the utilization of OFMSW. They can be operated either as single technologies or in cascade connection. However, the inherent energetic and material use potential of OFMSW is not fully exploited in both cases. Hydrothermal treatment (HTT) approaches are suitable for processing wet biomasses. They can supplement AD and composting to further increase the utilization efficiency of OFMSW. In this project, HTT below 200 °C was applied on OFMSW samples focusing on the generation of solid products with optimized characteristics for energetic utilization. View this paper.
