New innovation consortium – Waste to Value

Daka is involved in a new innovation consortium which is looking at the production of second generation biodiesel using waste and by-products. Read more about the consortium at www.waste2value.dk.

In connection with the press conference held on 27 February 2007, Daka published a number of press releases and background material regarding the company’s biodiesel. We see the consortium as an important platform for the further development and application of second generation biodiesel.
