🌍 Turning Waste Into Clean Green Energy

1. Waste → Electricity

Core idea: Solid waste is gasified, producing synthesis gas (H₂ + CO). This syngas is then combusted in a gas turbine or engine. Result: stable, continuous electric power and heat.

Why it works well:

·        Gasification operates at high efficiency in the 800–1200 °C range.

·        Syngas has a heating value of 5–12 MJ/Nm³.

·        The system can process wet, heterogeneous waste streams without pre‑sorting.

2. Waste → Methanol

Core idea: The same synthesis gas (H₂ + CO) is fed into a catalytic methanol‑synthesis reactor. Result: methanol — a globally traded commodity that is easy to store and transport.

Why it is advantageous:

·        Methanol has high energy density: ~22.7 MJ/kg.

·        The carbon backbone comes from the CO; the hydrogen content comes from H₂.

·        Carbon from waste is not released as CO₂ but converted into a valuable product.

3. Methanol → Hydrogen

Core idea: Methanol is reformed (steam reforming or partial oxidation). Result: high‑purity hydrogen suitable for fuel cells, industry, or mobility.

Why it is outstanding:

·        1 ton of carbon → ~2 tons of methanol → ~375 kg of hydrogen.

·        This is roughly four times more hydrogen than direct gasification would yield (~100 kg H₂ per ton of carbon).

·        Methanol acts as a liquid hydrogen carrier: easy logistics, no high‑pressure H₂ transport.

One‑sentence summary

Waste is first converted into synthesis gas → from this you generate electricity or produce methanol → and the methanol can be converted into large quantities of hydrogen exactly where it is needed.

 

Sustainable Energy from Waste – European Innovation.

 

The power plant’s energy source is syngas from waste gasification.

 

 

The power plant’s energy source is syngas from waste gasification.

 

We have developed a two-stage waste gasification system using a 1500°C microwave steam plasma that completely decomposes organic matter and produces a soot-free, NOx-free, high-hydrogen synthesis gas. There is no pyrolysis oil, no coke dust, and the solid residue is minimal and inert.

 

New and unique is the 50% syngas recirculation → self-stabilizing, energy-saving operation

• The recycled gas balances the fluctuating heating value of municipal solid waste (MSW).

• The reactor thermal balance is nearly self-sustaining, with minimal external energy requirements.

• Recirculation increases the lower heating value (LHV) of the gas, making the turbine branch more efficient.

• Such a recirculation logic is not present in any traditional gasifier.

 

Microwave steam plasma – ultra-clean, high-intensity conversion

• Microwave-excited vapor plasma provides equivalent reaction intensity above 1400–1500°C.

• Complete tar and plastic degradation at the molecular level.

• Turbine-grade synthesis gas rich in H₂/CO, without nitrogen dilution.

• NOx-free operation, as the process is completely oxygen- and air-free.

• The CaO–MgO phases of the dolomite bind HCl and SO₂, stabilize the slag and reduce corrosion.

 

Microwave steam plasma in technology

• Electrodeless operation (no erosion, no metal contamination)

• High reactive, OH and H radical density

• Uniform volumetric heating

• No combustion; no nitrogen dilution

• Function: Provides the thermal and chemical environment necessary for the complete decomposition of organic materials and the initiation of steam reforming reactions.

 

Oxygen-free operation → lower cost, cleaner gas

• No air, no oxygen → no NOx, no nitrogen dilution.

• Gas heating value is 30-40% higher than in air/oxygen gasifiers.

• No expensive NOx treatment systems → lower CAPEX/OPEX.

 

Modular, scalable, decentralized WtE platform

• Small footprint, fast installation, containerizable modules.

• Ideal for industrial parks, cities, waste treatment plants.

• The system does not burn, so the strict regulations of classic waste incinerators do not apply to it.

Electricity energy from wastes

 

           The population of our planet is constantly growing, so the amount of waste generated is also constantly growing, which can be used to generate electricity. Solar and wind energy are our ideal energy sources, but we also need to deal with waste, because it is slowly covering our planet. Electricity covers all our energy needs, there is no need for oil and coal, we can cook with electricity in the kitchen, use electric cars, cool and heat our homes.

 

           We build power plants that use syngas from tires and RDF as fuel for gas turbines. Our entire gasification process does not produce pyrolysis oil, coal dust, oil sludge, wastewater. Syngas is NOx-free, CO2 emissions are reduced. The synthetic gas produced is the fuel for gas turbines. There is no water consumption, so it can be used in desert environments, where drinking water is still a great value. Our goal is to provide the population of their settlements with locally produced energy from locally generated and locally collected waste, creating local jobs.

 

           Our waste recovery's environmental protection innovation incorporates microwave technology.  The microwave radiant in reactor space it creates a high-temperature field (electron temperature 6500°C) that efficiently disintegrates all complex compounds, such as resins, aromatic molecules, tars, etc. This technology leverages the intrinsic properties of microwave plasma for the effective decomposition of gaseous components. High temperatures in plasma jets can disintegrate organic or biological materials, neutralize potent toxins, and melt or vaporize stubborn inorganic substances, thus reducing waste significantly.

 

 

 

Climate protection with green coal, a biochar

 

We design and manufacture biochar carbonizers from 2 tons/day – 50 tons/day,

 

  • Climate protection with green coal, a biochar- Biochar is an excellent substitute for soil strength, it is more than a fertilizer e.g. the corn stalks grown on 1 ha, when charred and plowed, extract 6 tons of CO2 from our atmosphere. Biochar makes the micro-flora of infertile soil fertile, and regulates the water balance and water-holding capacity of agricultural land. It forms a good base for the microorganisms necessary for plant growth.

 

  • Biochar composition from harvest waste: C 77.58%, Volatile matter 12.92%, SiO2 3.5%, Al2O3 1.9%, CaO 1.9%, K2O 0.1%, Na2O 0.5%, Fe2O3 0.75% , MgO 1.3%. , P2O5 0.17%) Biochar produced from animal bone is a high-calcium phosphate and low-carbon apatite mineral product, which is a macroporous and slow-dissolving natural organic P-fertilizer. Hydroxyapatite with a high phosphorus content is mostly composed of an inorganic mineral and a carbon component.

 

  • Biochar can improve the composting process and improve itself at the same time. Reducing nitrogen loss during composting is a notable benefit when compost is supplemented with biochar. The highly absorbent surface of biochar, on the other hand, is "charged" with humic acids, plant nutrients and living microorganisms.

 

  • Nutrient conservation. Plant nutrients are released into the ground water through leaching and into the air through evaporation. This means a decrease in the economy's efficiency and, beyond the fence, an environmental problem. Nutrient pollution is one of the most widespread, costly and challenging environmental problems caused by excess nitrogen and phosphorus in air and water.

 

  • The efficiency of the fertilizer improved significantly after the application of biochar. This was primarily observed as a reduction in the loss of plant nutrients. Like charcoal used for filtration, biochar (a type of charcoal) can help trap plant nutrients in the soil. However, it is important to note that most of the nutrients stored in the biochar are still available to the plant  it resists loss, yet can be used. Mixing biochar directly into compost for a single co-product application maximizes the nutrient retention benefits of biochar.

 

  • Water retention. Where biochar has been applied, soils show higher water holding capacity, better water retention, increased plant available water, increased plant resilience in drought conditions, and increased productivity per unit of water. The yield benefits of adding biochar to agricultural practices in the case of irrigation, the expected result is a reduction in the amount of water needed,

My philosophy

 

 

My philosophy is, never be jealous of others' success. If you can't win a race, help the one ahead of you break the record. Your candle doesn't lose its light by lighting another. Let's follow this example of supporting and lifting each other up! This is a beautiful philosophy! Supporting and lifting others not only helps them succeed, but also creates a positive and encouraging environment for everyone. It's like spreading kindness and positivity, which can make a big difference in the world." 🌟
