TECHNOLOGY & PRODUCTS

Technology & products

Residues become products. For each one we say how far it has come.

OWN TECHNOLOGY

Pretreatment Unit – pre-treatment of paper sludge

Status: Ready to build at large scale

Paper sludge contains fibres that are hard to digest. We have developed an enzymatic pre-treatment and the plant technology for it: it makes the organic content accessible for anaerobic digestion, so that paper sludge can yield biogas.

The technology is designed as an on-site solution at a paper mill. Process and plant technology are our own development.

Agricultural products

From the digestate of our biogas plant we make products for agriculture and horticulture. Each product is specified only after sample testing.

WHAT WE DO TODAY

Liquid and solid digestate

For arable farms and agricultural contractors.

WHAT WE ARE DEVELOPING

Soil improvers

Stabilised solids enriched with humic substances; for farming, horticulture and landscaping.

Pellets and granules

Easy to dose, store and spread.

Growing-media components

Fibre and organic fractions for substrate manufacturers.

Liquid nutrient blends

Liquid fraction with added humic substances or nutrients.

Humic and fulvic concentrates

Specialist plant nutrition

Blends with micronutrients, algae or microorganisms.

Seed and young-plant uses

Seed coating, seed potatoes, root starters.

Decarbonisation products

Products that replace fossil fuels and raw materials. The processes behind them are beyond the pilot stage. Supply volumes and start dates depend on the project – whether a product is available in the quantity you need is something we clarify with you. Where a product is tied to a specific plant, we state that plant’s status.

Biogenic fuels from residues

For industrial furnaces and power plants that want to replace fossil fuels.

Maturity: Beyond pilot stage

Supply: Volumes and specification agreed per project

Biocarbon from biomass residues

As a coal substitute in industrial processes, for example instead of lignite dust, as a carbon carrier for industrial applications, and as biochar for soils and growing media.

Maturity: Beyond pilot stage

Supply: Volumes and specification agreed per project

Biomethane

Upgraded biogas replacing natural gas.

Maturity: Beyond pilot stage, established upgrading technology

Installation: Titz-Ameln: upgrading planned

Biogenic CO₂

Separated and liquefied during biogas upgrading, replacing fossil CO₂.

Maturity: Beyond pilot stage, established technology

Installation: Titz-Ameln: planned together with biomethane upgrading
