We live up to our social responsibility, by providing a technology that enables our customers to turn biomass residues into a renewable fuel: fast pyrolysis bio-oil (FPBO).

FPBO can be used to replace crude oil, so that more fossil resources can stay untouched. The key features of our technology design that make this renewable solution a truly sustainable one, are choosing the right biomass and processing it locally.

The right biomass

We believe in using only biomass residues from agriculture, sustainable forestry and related processing industries, such as saw mills. Examples are sawdust, pruning residues, sunflower husks, wheat straw, corn stover, bagasse and roadside grass. Converting such residues into a bioliquid that can be used as a fuel or to make bio-based materials, follows the principle of cascading and creates a carbon-neutral solution.

Choosing the right biomass is also about avoiding an impact on biodiversity or, preferably, creating a positive impact. Biodiversity is the foundation of healthy ecosystems, and a crucial prerequisite for maintaining a healthy business environment. The feedstocks for our current pyrolysis plants in the Netherlands, Finland and Sweden are all based on sawmill residues. The forestry industry in Scandinavian countries is well-established and the protection of biodiversity is an integral part of the sector, safeguarded by certification systems. We are always looking for partners that can help us create a more positive impact on biodiversity. Please feel free to contact us for exchanging ideas on this topic.
