Potential analysis, biogas lab and pyrolysis cooker: DBFZ starts foreign procject in Togo

In a project financed by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and running until the end of 2023, Leipzig scientists are investigating the potential of residual and waste materials in West Africa and providing support in setting up a research biogas laboratory and in the production of pyrolysis cookers for rural regions. The aim is to build up long-term know-how and scientific capacities on the subject of climate change and its impact on land use in Togo, West Africa. Togolese scientists are being trained at the Lomé University as well as at the DBFZ in Leipzig to ensure the independent and sustainable use of the established infrastructure.
