The SECTOR midterm project meeting took place from 16.10. – 18.10.2013 at the site of the project partner CENER in Pamplona, Spain. With 45 participants including two advisory board members and three external experts, the meeting was very successful and offered the opportunity to an intensive exchange between the different work packages and partners. A common workshop with external experts from related projects and the IEA Task 40 disclosed links and cooperation possibilities between the projects.  An excursion to the CENER semi-industrial pilot scale test facility gave an insight into their biomass physical pre-treatment unit, gasification unit and the biochemical module.
