PS-21 · Syngas
Syngas
Fuel for gensets, boilers, dryers and kilns.
GAS · Technologies
Syngas for on-site power and heat.
Installations that convert biomass and other suitable carbonaceous materials into syngas, with feeding, reaction, cooling, cleaning and process control systems.
PS-10 · Gasification
Operating principle
Gasification
Gasification is high-temperature partial oxidation. With a controlled amount of air or another agent, the carbon in biomass converts into a combustible gas made up mainly of carbon monoxide, hydrogen and methane. Once cleaned, the gas feeds engines, boilers or burners.
| Atmosphere | Controlled partial oxidation |
|---|---|
| Agent | Air; other agents depending on application |
| Operation | Continuous |
| Product | Syngas, electricity and heat |
How it works
The process, stage by stage
Every plant is designed around these stages. The final configuration depends on the analysis of your feedstock and the products you want to obtain.
Stage 01 / 06
Preparation
Size and moisture within gasifier specification.
Stage 02 / 06
Feeding
Controlled, sealed feeding to keep the bed stable.
Stage 03 / 06
Gasifier
Drying, pyrolysis, oxidation and reduction zones inside the reactor.
Stage 04 / 06
Cooling
Recovery of the gas sensible heat.
Stage 05 / 06
Cleaning
Particle separation, scrubbing and filtration to remove dust and tars.
Stage 06 / 06
End use
Genset, boiler or industrial burner, with integrated control.

Why this technology
01
Energy where the residue is
Local generation from own biomass: less diesel, less residue transport.
02
Stable energy cost
The fuel is the business’s own residue, not an international price.
03
Cogeneration
Electricity and useful heat from the same system.
PyroTrack
Every batch, recorded in PyroTrack
Inputs, process conditions and products are traced for operations, regulatory reporting and certification.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How clean must the gas be for an engine?
Engines require low tar and particulate levels. The cleaning train is sized to the engine and the biomass.
Does it work with any biomass?
No. Moisture, ash and particle size determine feasibility. Very wet biomass usually suits other routes better.
Gasification or carbonization?
If the main goal is energy, gasification. If it is a solid product or carbon credits, carbonization. We decide with your mass balance and market.
