Aim: The aim of BEFWAM is to utilize the invasive aquatic biomass, water hyacinth, for the production of biogas, the cleaning of water and the recovery and production of fertilizers. The key objectives include:

1. The use of water hyacinth in combination with nutrient rich wastes to produce biogas by anaerobic digestion.
2. The development of simple upgrading strategies for upgrading biogas into high quality bio-methane.
3. The artificial cultivation of water hyacinth for cleaning water and recovering nutrients for production of fertiliser.
