Training section
The Falköping Model is an Excel-based biomethane calculation tool. The purpose of this tool is to give you a better understanding of biogas systems. It was developed as part of the Biogasmax project by SWECO (Robert Olsson, Fredrik Brynolf, Anna Johansson, Krister Pettersson), Falköpings Kommun (Ida Helander) and Transport & Travel Research Ltd: (Tom Parker). The development of the published version has been a cooperation between these parties. Need for more explanation ? Ask your questions at [email protected]
