Conversion process for biomass

 

TCR-Technology - Green crude oil from waste

With TCR technology, a large number of biogenic residues can be converted into liquid, crude oil-equivalent energy sources and chemical raw materials.

 

Synthetic fuels from waste biomass

A standard-compliant diesel or petrol fuel is produced with the patented TCR® process from residual materials such as sewage sludge or organic waste.

 

Carbonization and biochar

Research and development for the generation of carbonization and biochar

Combustion processes and process heat

 

Combustion technology and emission reduction

One focus of our development and research work is on systems and processes for the optimal energy recovery of residual and waste materials.

 

High temperature heat storage systems

Metallic heat accumulators can store process heat and make process steam generation in industrial power plants more flexible.
