Regions with high livestock density lack sufficient land on which to apply manure without exceeding the legal limits set by
the European Union Directives. The lack of manure processing alternatives aggravates the situation, especially in the case
of islands. Consequently, manure becomes a liability rather than an asset. Results indicate that pyrolysis is an option for
manure processing. However, a significant limitation is the moisture content of the starting material, that could compromise
the process efficiency. Yields of biogas, bio-oil and biochar, all of which have a potential use as biofuels, are particular
to animal type and manure handling system. The conversion of manure to biofuels contributes to the development of a bio-based
economy.
