BIOCHAR FROM BIOSOLIDS

Turn your chal­lenges into a profi­table busi­ness case
 

 

Recy­cling of sewage sludge through pyro­lysis offers multible game-chan­ging bene­fits, for muni­ci­pa­li­ties. With PYREG your commu­nity can gene­rate valuable, phos­phorus enri­ched biochar while gene­ra­ting rene­wable energy, used for drying/mass reduc­tion, and valuable carbon credits.

GAME-CHAN­GING BENEFITS

COST AVOID­ANCE
  • Mass reduc­tion of up to 90%
  • No resi­dues left to be disposed, ther­e­fore no disposal costs
  • Elimi­nate high trans­port costs and tipping fees at inci­ne­ra­tion plants or landfills
  • Decen­tra­lized: Proces­sing on site
RENE­WABLE ENERGY

Rene­wable energy that is gene­rated during the carbo­niza­tion process is used for drying /mass reduction.

ENVI­RON­MENTAL AND SOCIAL BENEFITS
  • Safe and secure solu­tion for the destruc­tion of hazar­dous subs­tances through a proven carbo­niza­tion technology
  • Elimi­nates the onward effects of PFAS impacts on our environment
BIOCHAR FROM BIOSOLIDS

Biochar from bioso­lids contains valuable phos­phorus; this biochar ferti­lizer is proven to have 90% effec­ti­ve­ness compared to Triple Super Phos­phate (TSP)

CARBON CREDITS
  • Climate posi­tive process
  • Earning addi­tional revenue by gene­ra­ting carbon credits
EXPE­RI­ENCE
  • Nume­rous systems in opera­tion around the world since 2015
  • Fully inte­grated tech­no­logy (filtra­tion, wet scrubber, acti­vated carbon filter) to meet strict emis­sions standards
  • Acce­le­ra­tion of permit­ting process through precedent

FREEDSTOCK POLUTANT DEGRADATION

 

PYREG tech­no­logy guaran­tees a controlled, conti­nuous carbo­niza­tion process at a tempe­ra­ture of >500 °C for >10 minutes. This removes polut­ants of high ecolo­cical and human health impact. PYREG helps Waste­water Treat­ment plants to trans­form waste into value, leading to signi­fi­cant revenue oppor­tu­nity for muni­ci­pa­li­ties around the world.

COMPACT AND DECEN­TRA­LIZED – INTE­GRATED DRYING AND CARBONIZATION

 

PYREG plants are compact, container based and can easily be inte­grated into exis­ting infra­struc­ture and mate­rial cycles. Our plants for bioso­lids recy­cling and for gentle phos­phorus reco­very have been proving their worth since 2015.
