Valorising waste flows

Waste flows like biogas, syngas, hydrogen, not to mention flue gasses and hydrocarbons are valuable sources of energy. Instead of discharging or burning them off, you can use them as a fully fledged fuel. We design and build heating systems that no longer make them undesirable but very much profitable.

From waste flow to profitability: get the most out of your energy

Waste flows don’t have to remain a polluting cost. Turn them into a viable source of energy with ingenious technology. 

  1. Use what you produce yourself.
  2. Reduce your CO2 emissions. 
  3. Increase your profitability.

Steam boilers, thermal oil boilers and hot water boilers can all be designed to use a waste flow as fuel.

Energy from biogas, syngas and more

Every waste flow behaves differently. We analyse the composition, temperature and calorific value of your specific waste flows and, on that basis, design a system that takes full advantage of them. In various ways:

  • Biogas used as fuel to generate steam
  • Flue gasses reused via an economiser or heat exchanger
    We use our own APC system - designed by Optimum - to clean flue gasses to prevent the boiler becoming polluted.
  • Syngas used as an alternative fuel in thermal processes
  • Hydrocarbons incinerated in a thermal oxidiser, with heat recovery

Also liquid waste flows can be used as heat sources.
