Łukasiewicz – New Chemical Syntheses Institute (INS) is the latest member to join the Polish Biomethane Organization. Seated in Puławy, Łukasiewicz – INS runs research and development work in the field of chemical and biological sciences. It is the first research institute affiliated with PBO, which represents industry experts and leading fuel, energy and heating companies operating in Poland.
“The potential of biomethane and the range of the most suitable substrates for an optimized output of biomethane in Poland has yet to be determined. We hope that with the help of our research and development, we will contribute to developing a completely new sector of renewable energy sources in Poland,” – said Prof. Janusz Igras, General Director of INS.
“We are pleased to welcome a renowned research and development institute as our member. As a center of scientific excellence with a highly skilled staff, Łukasiewicz – INS will aid PBO in developing extensive analyses, resulting in a full and reliable assessment of biomethane potential in Poland,” – said General Director of the Polish Biomethane Organization Michal Tarka.
