Fields of activity

Raw material-flexible technology concepts:
Further development of technologies – fixed-bed gasifiers and pyrolysis units – aiming at expanding the range of feedstocks to low-quality residues.

Tailored gas qualities:
Tailoring gas qualities for specific applications – e.g., producing nitrogen-free product gas for the chemical looping process or achieving defined compositions or purity.

GreenCarbon – product design:
production of defined product qualities for specific applications (e.g. as soil additive, material additive or reducing agent in metallurgy) by selecting suitable feedstocks and process conditions.

Efficient overall concepts:
Optimal integration of heat and power production of polygeneration concepts.

Negative Emission Technologies:
Inherent carbon capture during thermochemical conversion of (renewable) raw materials.
