The International Energy Agency has scheduled a Low-Emissions Gases Day to assess potential roles of #biomethane, low-emissions #hydrogen and e-methane.
Delighted to present on circular economy approaches to biogas.
Register here for the 28th Feb 2025

Our latest MaREI paper documents a two-phase anaerobic digestion system producing valuable #bioproducts, and #biogas, using a demand-driven operational approach to match market conditions, while minimising water use by reusing the process effluent.

We have 2; 1942-43; 43-44.
My dad always called to school insisting the translation of my name Jeremiah is Diarmuid.
Great to see D ร Murcada (both our names) on these medals.
Thank you for writing about her Regina. She lived a great life, and only time she was recounted in a Newspaper was your article. You gave a great woman her 15 minutes of fame.
Wish you a very happy Christmas.
My beautiful granny Nora lived in my family home. She was born in 1898; saw war of independence, burning of Patrickโs Street, funeral of Michael Collins. She was widowed in her 40โs and lived to 93.
She loved life, family, stories & cooking.
Regina captured her magic @culinaryireland.bsky.social
Gotta love New York State. Fabulous forests upstate. Biodiversity is hugely supported. Spent time in Ithaca this fall. Houses built in forest. No fences. No boundaries. Trees grow right up to houses. If that was ireland we would clear fell. Sell wood for lumber and sell land for sites.

The interview is worth a listen Chutes. It is a detailed interrogation of the pros and cons of net zero aviation. No green washing. No agenda. Based on scientific evidence.
