Effective Torrefaction Technology from JF BioCarbon

Basically there are two torrefaction technology in use today, namely the direct heating and indirect heating. Direct heating is torrefaction technology with direct heating by using the unit operation (process equipment), among others, with non-oxygen gas loop with exchanger using a moving bed, drum, vibrating belt, multiple heart furnace or using a low-oxygen gas loop linked to the burner using a tunnel or moving bed.  While the indirect heating included using advanced drying technology and retort heating as did JF BioCarbon.  A number of technology providers are competing to design an effective and efficient process so that meet benefit greatly. The use of indirect heating such as JF BioCarbon uses a vacuum process and operating conditions are easier to control.

Huge market potential, because the excellence of the biomass torrefaction products (torrified wood pellet and briquette), also made ​​a number of technology providers to increase their production capacity. Currently the average manufacturer produces less than 5 tons / hour torrefied wood products. Production capacity to 5 tons / hour is one of the parameters of success of this technology. Torrefied wood products is predicted to replace the wood pellets, because of its superiority, among others, as follows:

-Hydrophobic characteristically, good to be stored for a long time without experiencing degradation of its physical properties
-Moisture content below 3%
-Easy to be crushed or pulverized to coal plant process
-The properties of torrified wood are very homogeneous
-Burned without causing smoke and smell because of all volatile material had been removed during manufacture.
-Ideal for gasification and Fisher-Tropsch process for conversion to chemicals.

-Can be made ​​from many biomass, while wood pellet can be made only from narrow feedstocks.

In addition to wood pellet market is already global oversupply, also encourages the use of better fuel economy in both the torrefied wood briquettes or pellets.

Among a number of technology providers, JF BioCarbon using the process easier, simpler and faster. If the average of the production process torrefied pellets through 10 stages as follows:

a. Pre-Torrefaction

1.Prepare feedstock particle size 

2. Pre-dry feedstock

b. Torrefaction

3. Evaporate Residual Moisture

4. Heat Feedstock to 250-280 C

5. De-polimerize hemicellulose

c. Post-Torrefaction

6. Cool & re-polymerize product

7. Crush to Size

8. Condition

9. Densify (pelletizing)

10. Cool & Screen

 (Adapted from Wood Pellet Association of Canada)

 

So JF BioCarbon production process is shorter, ie :

1-      Prepare feedstock size

2 &3 Pre-dry feedstock & evaporate moisture.. This is all done in one process.

4 & 5- are one combined process

6-       Torrefied is cooled while being moved from reactor to char bin via a cold water cooled jacketed auger system (40 ft. long)

7.  Fine particles ready for pelletizing if necessary.

8.  Pelletizing

9. Cool and Screen

The concept of Zero Waste MSW Processing Using Continous Pyrolysis Technology and Biogas System

How did your perspective when looking at the mounting garbage, whether it be problems or challenges that invite the opportunity?

It's no secret that the waste problem has become a common problem in many places, especially in big cities. The challenge is how to make waste processing unit that zero waste and be profitable? Integration of continuous pyrolysis technology and biogas system is the answer on this. With pyrolysis, organic waste, plastics, and tires will produce specific products with high economic value. When the processing of organic waste are the main products produced charcoal, biooil, and syngas. All of them can be used for energy applications. While the plastic is processed then the primary product is syn crude oil whose quality as petroleum. Processing of scrap tires with pyrolysis will produce syn crude oil like in plastic pyrolysis processing, carbon black, syngas and steel wire.

With the sale of the products of pyrolysis, so the activity of MSW processing is not only dependent on the tipping fee, but the majority of the profits derived from the sale of the pyrolysis products. In addition there are two thermal process beside pyrolysis which is used on MSW processing, there are gasification and incineration, but pyrolysis has many advantages over both methods, more details please click here.

In the processing of organic waste with this continuous pyrolysis technology, before the organic waste enter  into the pyrolysis unit, the moisture content of the organic waste need to be reduced to about 10% by using a mechanical device. In this process will produce leachate that rich with organic matter so that the potential for biogas system in anaerobic digestion reactor, so that gas can be produced for power generation. While the byproducts of residual water will be cleaner because the organic components decompose during the formation of biogas, thus safely discharged to the environment and the solid residue will be used as high-quality compost.

Stop Burning Forest: Convert Biomass Waste Into Energy and Biochar

The tradition of open land for agriculture and plantations by burning the forest is a tradition of environmental and health damage, so it should be promptly discontinued. The smoke produced is also disrupting transportation. In addition to strict regulations that also use technology that can provide maximum benefit, need to be sought and applied. Or by economic review, how the problem is to bring profitable opportunities. Biomass waste generated from clearing land can be utilized for the production of biochar and energy.

CHP engine would be very beneficial to the environment, given the state of Indonesia which some still lack power (only about 60% area get electricity). A JFE pyrolysis unit with a capacity of 200 tons / day INPUT will produce about 60 tons / day of biochar and power 5 MW. Production of biochar with this pyrolysis technology is carbon negative, because biochar produced will absorb carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is greater than the biochar-making process. Biochar is applied again to the farm will provide benefits for soil fertility and sequestration of CO2 from the atmosphere.

JFE continuous pyrolysis technology will provide solutions to those problems. Waste biomass will be converted into biochar and energy for heat and electricity production. The smoke that interfere with vision and breathing are also not going to happen because of exhaust emissions from the pyrolysis plant is well below the emissions standards required. A number of tools to harvest biomass from land should be used to meet the needs of the pyrolysis plant raw materials.



Indonesia is committed to reducing its emissions by one through the mechanism of REDD +, with a target of 26% in 2020 or it could reach 41% if there is assistance to Indonesia. Agriculture and waste contribute greatly in contributing to emissions, iklimkarbon.com for the detail info. The flow of funds from developed to developing countries through REDD + reached 30 billion U.S. dollars worth of IDR 270 trillion per year. Indonesia launched the Indonesia green with the movement of one billion trees. One tree can absorb CO2 is known to 28 tons / year and hold water up to 100 liters / year. While the average human breathe in oxygen of 10 tons / year and uses 10 liters of water / day.

Let salvation of the earth by stopping the burning of forests and convert biomass waste into energy and biochar. To see the JF BioCarbon pot test please click here

Reduce fossil fuel dependency with biomass for energy

One of the most interesting developments in global commerce of biomass (biological matter that can be used as fuel) raw-material in recent years has been the substantial increase in the trade of biomass for energy generation. Much of the increase in shipments is the result of policies implemented by European governments to generate more green energy based on renewable resources as a substitute for fossil fuels. According Wood Resource Quarterly (WRQ) biomass for energy (pellet production) was close to 10 million ton in 2008. It is estimated that production will double over the next four to five years and some industry experts forecast an annual growth of 25-30 percent; globally over the next ten years.

Europe is currently the major market for biomass for energy especially pellets, briquette and torrified wood , but the interest for non-fossil fuels in North America is growing. Biomass, i.e. all organic plant and animal products used to produce energy (or in agriculture), currently accounts for around half (44 to 65 percent;) of all renewable energy used in the EU. Biomass currently meets 4% of the EU's energy needs (69 million tonnes of oil equivalent (toe)). The aim is to increase biomass use to around 150 million toe by 2010. The new leadership in the US government is going to have a positive impact on alternative fuel usage and the expected change in energy policy could very well result in increased imports of pellets, briquette and torrified wood from Canada to the US, which will eventually diminish the flow of biomass from North America to Europe. As a result, European consumers will have to search for alternative supply sources in Asia, Latin America, Africa and Russia.

Bi-products from sawmills have historically been the most commonly used wood fiber source for energy generation as well known as major raw material for this industry but because of higher demand for renewable energy and increasing costs for fossil fuels, it has increasingly become possible for power plants to also utilize higher-cost forest waste such as tree tops, branches and smaller trees. As this supply source has started to tap out, there is now an increased interest in searching for alternative fiber. It can be expected that European pellet manufacturers will increasingly use forest residues, urban wood waste and fast-growing tree species. They will also begin to compete more aggressively with pulpmills and wood-panel mills for sawmill chips and pulplogs. Imports of wood chips from overseas may also be an option for some pellet plants. Indonesia and Malaysia has well known as biomass rich countries especially from their forest residue, urban wood waste and oil palm industry residue. Now the hundreds million tonnes biomass waste that generate annually from Indonesia and Malaysia not yet expoitated, more become environmental problem than potential resources from bioenergy or salable commodity. Tropical climate and good soil fertility make these countries have huge potential for sustainable cycle of biomass for energy production.

A surprisingly large share of the global pellet production is being shipped to markets outside the producing country, not only between countries but also intercontinentally. According to the WRQ, an estimated 25 percent; of world production was exported in 2008. Most of the overseas volume was shipped from British Columbia (B.C), Canada to Belgium, the Netherlands and Sweden, despite the seemingly prohibitively costly 15,000-km journey from the Interior of BC to the European market. This situation can be explained by the currently low costs for raw material (shavings and sawdust) in Canada and the high prices for wood pellets in Europe. B.C. is the centre of wood-pellet production in North America and roughly 90 percent; of B.C.’s wood pellets are exported, including more than 500,000 tonnes to Europe. The B.C. wood pellet industry has grown by 20 percent; each year over the last five years. More than 11,500 biomass installations in the European Union have generated over 260 million tons of CO2 credits, valued at over 5 billion Euro.

The rapid expansion in global trade of biomass (both wood chips and pellets) is likely to continue over the next three to five years as more countries favour renewable energy and as local, relatively inexpensive supplies of biomass reach their limits. The question is how long expansion of the overseas water-borne transport will continue to grow, given the uncertainty of future costs of oil and the paradox of consuming large quantities of low-refined heavy fuel oils for the shipments of green energy to European customers.

Then torrefaction become the ultimate solution for overcome the demand of biomass for energy over the globe. Torrefaction is considered to be a pre-treatment technology to make biomass more suitable for co-firing applications, which aims to produce a fuel with increased energy density by decomposing the reactive hemicellulose fraction. During torrefaction the biomass its properties are changed to obtain a much better fuel quality for combustion and gasification applications.Torrefaction of biomass is an effective method to improve the grindability of biomass to enable more efficient co-firing in existing power stations or entrained-flow gasification for the production of chemicals and transportation fuels.The E.U. currently produces 4 percent; of its electricity from biomass sources and intends to double its output by 2010 through the initiatives outlined in the E.U. Biomass Action Plan. The Commission identifies three sectors in which biomass use should be prioritised, namely heat production, electricity production and transport.

'Renewable Energy' new part of our life

Not only are fossil fuels the problem, but according to the IEA's World Energy Outlook 2008, we are likely to see an increase in world primary energy demand of 45 percent between 2006 and 2030. As set out in the Energy Equality chapter, developing countries and emerging economies are in the great need of energy. Both need to fuel their growth, and the latter are beginning to converge with formerly dominant world powers, who are now seeing their economies contract.

The only logical and safe option is to channel all possible resources into a new world energy system, based on renewable energies which can provide millions of jobs, new industries and exports, energy security, and protection of the climate and environment. Any policymaker still voting for fossil fuels, and against renewable energy, on the basis of such pros and cons must be asked to give way to someone wiser and more caring. New nuclear programme is not the answer because problem on technology detail. The more one researches the subject, the firmer these conclusion become:renewable energy is the only reasonable and logical choice, with huge variety of benefits; and the switch must be prioritized immediately.

But this is a highly complex matter-renewable energy and its applications are varied, and provide a unique energy endowment for each country. There is no one-size-fits-all approach on technology and policy which can be advocated/ Ultimately, it will be up to each nation to determine how best to harness and protect investment in its renewable resources, and to decide how to share them.By offering a preferential tariff for producers of renewable energy, as well as investment security, they have led to the most rapid deployment at the lowest costs of any policy.

Investment in renewable energy has been surging, and 2008 was another good year with $120 billion invested worldwide. Approximate figures suggest wind (42 percent), solar PV (32 percent) dan biofuels (13 percent) attracted most of these funds, with biomass and geothermal power and heat, solar hot water and small hydro taking up around 6, 6 and 5 percent respectively. Manufacturing capacity has also benefited strongly from capital investment. The US ($24 billion), Germany, China and Spain ($15-19 billion range) and Brazil ($5 billion) were the biggest investors. Energy security and meeting carbon reduction targets, it will be very interesting to see how deployment develops over the next few years. And around US$500 million in development assistance grants is targeted at developing countries annually for renewable energy projects and for training and market support.

This funds policy analysis work, economic assessment, market and business development, project feasibility studies, financing mechanisms, technology improvements and capacity building, and sometimes covers partial incremental costs of renewable energy projects.

Several foundations and NGOs such as the UN Foundation and the Energy Foundation provide funds and manage programmes promoting renewable energy. Bilateral development banks and agencies also contribute, such as the European Union and the European Investment Bank, and national development institutions such as the Australian Agency for International Development (AusAID) and the Deutsche Gesellschaft fur Technische Zusammerarbeit GmbH, better known as GTZ.

As an example of where some of these agencies put their money, the UK’s Department for International Development (DFID) is one of the many funders of Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Partnership (REEEP) a global initiative concerned with reducing policy, regulatory and financial barriers to renewable energy and energy efficiency technologies and projects. The partnership has funded more than eighty ‘high quality’ projects in forty developing countries. These projects are beginning to deliver new business models, policy recommendations, risk mitigation instruments and regulatory measures. REEEP also engages in international, national and regional policy dialogues.

Several United Nations organizations actively promote renewable energy. The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has an ‘Energy and Environment Practice” which promote acess to sustainable energy services as an essential development strategy. UNER’s (United Nations Environment Programme) renewable energy activities focus on the needs of developing and transition economies in various areas of renewable energy technology research, development and commercialization.

UNEP’s Sustainable Energy Finance Initiative (SEFI) is a platform providing financiers with the tools, support and global network needed to conceive and manage investments in the “complex and rapidly changing marketplace” for clean energy technologies. UNIDO (the United Nations Industrial Development Organization) focuses on rural energy for productive use. Other UN bodies work to spread renewable energy technology information, and to engage stakeholders in accelerating RE development.

The GEF was established in 1991 under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), as a mechanism to help developing countries fund projects and programmes that protect the global environment while still supporting national sustainable development initiatives. Nearly a billion dollars has gone to around 150 renewable energy projects in developing countries.

Indonesia and Malaysia is the biggest CPO (crude palm oil) producers in the world. Indonesia has reported with an annual production approximately 22 million tones, a plantation area of approximately 7 million hectares and more than 400 palm oil mills (POM). An additional 18 million hectares has been identified for palm plantation expansion. The solid waste components from POM production are empty fruit bunch (EFB), fiber and shell. These have been identified as the potential raw materials for pyrolysis technology to yield charcoal / biochar or torrified wood, bio-oil and syngas.

JFE have mission to make industry of POMs solid waste processing to produce renewable energy and agricultural products in Indonesia and South-East Asia, by making joint venture company with investor and/or biomass owner. The wide of market access, proven technology (JF BioCarbon System Ltd, Canada as technological support), abundant raw material, good operating business system and research capability for development is the key success of this business.

Biochar in Action

By 2009 global carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations have already reached 387 parts per million (ppm), up by 40 percent from 275 ppm in 1900. Until recently a doubling to 550 ppm was widely regarded as an acceptable target, but this has been revised downward to some 450 ppm as new scientific evidence about a warming planet has emerged. Now a growing number of climatologist are questioning even this limited increase, and argue for an actual reduction of CO2 concentrations to 350 ppm or below. This goes way beyond scenarios currently being proposed by goverments in developed countries, whose policies are homing in on 80 percent reduction of carbon emission from 1990 figures by 2050.

The problem is that every year we are now discharging nearly 10 billion tonnes of carbon into the atmosphere. Of this, four to five billion tonnes are not being reabsorbsed into the world's ecosystems, but are instead accumulating in the atmosphere above our heads. According to the Global Carbon Project, the land and ocean carbon sinks-such as forests, and plankton in the ocean-removed about 54 percent, or 4.8 billion tonnes a year, of the carbon that human discharged into the atmosphere between 2000 and 2007. That leaves a carbon surplus of about 4 billion tonnes or so per year, which we need to find ways to reduce or absorb. For global temperatures to stabilize, carbon emisssions must ultimately not exceed what can be absorbed by the biosphere, the Earth's vegetation, soils and oceans. So can we enhance the capacity of bioshere to absorb CO2?

The earth's natural sinks of CO2 are ocean, forests and, perhaps most importantly, soil. The global soil carbon pool is estimated to amount to 2,500 Gt, whereas the biotic (vegetation based) pool is 560 Gt. A key point to be considered is that whilst fossil-fuel burning massively increased in the last 300 years, the capacity of biosphere to absorb it has been significantly reduced at the same time. Dr. Rattan Lal, Professor of Soil Science at Ohio State University, has calculated that 476 billions of tonnes (Gt) of carbon has been emitted from farmland soils due to inapproriate farming and grazing practice, compared with 270 Gt emitted from over 150 years of burning fossil fuels.

Most agricultural soils have lost anything of their antecedent soil organic carbon pool, or a total of 30 to 40 tC/ha. Carbon loss from soils is mainly associated with soil degradation and has amounted to 78+/-12 Gt since 1850. Thus, the present organic carbon pool in agricultural soils is much lower than their potential capacity.Considering all greenhouse gases, the global technical mitigation potential from agriculture is between 1.5 and 1.64 gigatonnes of carbon equivalent per year by 2030.

In addition to measures for enriching farmland and pastures with 'conventional' organic matter, a very significant new option is becoming available under the heading of 'biochar'.
This application related to the FAO states that soil carbon sequestration can take effect very quickly and is a cost-effective win-win approach which combines mitigation, adaptation, increased resilience and the promise of more reliable and increased crops yield. The biochar particles can improve soil structure, and enhance the presesnce of micro-organisms and plant nutrient. Adding biochar to the soil not only enhances fertility and life in the soil, but also helps it to retain moisture-which is very important in an age of climate change.

The FAO is also working on tools to measure, monitor and verify soil carbon pools and fluxes of greenhouse gas emission from agricultural soils, including cropland, degraded land and pastures. With global population expected to grow to nine billion by 2050, and with increasingly uncertain oil and water supplies,well-thought-out new approaches to securing carbon-rich organic soil can help to secure the food supplies of future generations. Professor Johannes Lehman of Cornell University and others have calculated biochar applications to soil could remove several billion tonnes of carbon from the atmosphere per year.

Meng-uangkan Sampah Kota

Sampah kota telah menjadi permasalahan besar di hampir semua kota besar di Indonesia. Volume sampah semakin hari semakin bertambah berbanding lurus dengan pertambahan jumlah penduduk. Untuk di Indonesia selain tidak ada pemisahan antara sampah organik dan anorganik yang cukup merepotkan pada pengolahan sampahnya juga kesadaran masyarakat untu membuang sampah di tempat yang disediakan perlu dibudayakan dan ditingkatkan. Tidak sedikit juga masyarakat yang membuang sampahnya ke sungai yang potensial dan sudah beberapa kali terbukti sebagai salah satu penyebab banjir. Berbagai program digulirkan pemerintah untuk merubah perilaku masyarakat tersebut ditambah biaya besar, tetapi seberapa efektif perlu kita cermati dan analisis bersama. Hampir semua tempat pembuangan akhir sampah ini terlihat kumuh dengan bau yang tidak sedap. Lingkungan sekitar tempat pembuangan akhir otomatis adalah lingkungan yang tidak sehat.

Salah satu masalah lingkungan hidup yang memerlukan penanganan serius adalah lingkungan hidup perkotaan, yaitu pencemaran tanah, air dan udara. Sampah adalah sumber utama pencemaran tanah dan air. Volume sampah di kota-kota besar di Indonesia terus bertambah, seiring dengan pertambahan penduduk. Jumlah sampah di kota metropolitan Jakarta rata-rata 0,65kg, di Surabaya 0,52 kg dan Bandung 0,50 kg/orang/hari. Dengan jumlah penduduk sekitar delapan juta jiwa, DKI Jakarta setiap hari menghasilkan sekitar 6.250 ton atau sekitar 25.650 meter kubik. Jika sampah sebanyak ini diangkut dengan truk berkapasitas lima ton-seukuran truk kebersihan kota Jakarta-setiap hari akan terjadi antrean 1.250 truk menuju tempat pembuangan sampah.


Volume sampah yang dihasilkan suatu komunitas kota sangat besar tiap harinya dan cenderung meningkat. Tempat pembuangan akhir dalam waktu singkat akan segera overload untuk kapasitas sampah tersebut. Simak saja seperti kota Depok yang diperkirakan hanya mampu sampai 2013, Yogyakarta sampai 2012, dan Jakarta sudah sangat sering terusik oleh masalah sampah ini. Dan ketika tempat pembuangan akhir hendak diperbesar kapasitasnya dengan menambah alokasi lahan, simaklah betapa banyak masyarakat yang keberatan hingga berdemo untuk menolak rencana tersebut. Pola sistem sanitary landfill (penumpukan sampah) di TPA itu sudah dinilai tak sesuai dengan kondisi zaman. Tak hanya itu, pola tersebut juga bisa membahayakan warga sekitarnya semisal longsor karena tingginya tumpukannya. Belum lagi, sering terjadinya ledakan sampah akibat gas metan yang pada akhirnya menimbulkan kebakaran. Selain masalah daya tampung tempat pembuangan akhir, jumlah armada pengangkut juga belum mencukupi sehingga banyak sampah tetap mencemari lingkungan dan berakibat buruk pada kesehatan.



Berbagai upaya dilakukan untuk mengatasi sampah kota ini yang jumlahnya bisa mencapai puluhan ton dan menggunung tergantung jumlah penduduk di kota tersebut. Pembusukan yang menghasilkan bau yang tidak sedap dan gas metana ini perlu mendapat penanganan serius dan professional. Ada sejumlah cara yang digunakan untuk mengatasi masalah sampah ini, tetapi cara terbaik dengan seluruh sampah bisa dimanfaatkan dan bernilai tambah secara optimal adalah keinginan semua pihak.


Hingga saat ini, penanganan sampah tersebut belum optimal. Menurut BPS tahun 1999, baru 11,25% sampah didaerah perkotaan yang diangkut petugas, 63,35% ditimbun/dibakar, 6,35% sampah dibuat kompos, dan 19,05% sampah dibuang ke kali/sembarangan. Sedangkan didaerah pedesaan sebanyak 19% sampah diangkut oleh petugas, 54% ditimbun/dibakar, 7% sampah dibuat kompos dan 20% dibuang ke kali/sembarangan.

Cara paling mudah adalah dilakukan sortasi antara sampah organik dan sampah anorganik. Pemulung hanya mengambil bahan-bahan yang laku dijual mulai dari logam, kardus dan plastik tipe tertentu. Sedangkan sampah organik setelah dipisahkan bisa diolah lebih lanjut menjadi kompos. Lalu bagaimana dengan sampah plastik yang tidak diambil pemulung dan tidak bisa diurai tanah (non-recycle and non-reuseable plastic)?

Teknologi pirolisis kontinyu mampu mengolah limbah tersebut hingga menjadi produk bahan bakar yang bernilai jual. Plastik adalah produk turunan dari minyak bumi yang komposisinya adalah hidrokarbon, ketika bahan tersebut dipirolisis maka produk berupa hidrokarbon kembali terbentuk dan Anda bisa segera mengaplikasikan sebagai bahan bakar komersial sebagai substitusi minyak tanah. Jika tidak memiliki resource untuk mengolah sampah organik menjadi kompos alternatif dengan pirolisis bisa menjadi solusi terbaik, produk arang, biooil akan bisa kita ambil dengan nilai jual tinggi, sedangkan syngas potensial sebagai pembangkit listrik.

Cara lain yang juga tidak kalah praktis adalah membakarnya langsung dalam incinerator. Memang terlihat praktis tetapi ada berbagai side effect penggunaan incinerator antara lain pembakaran menimbulkan polusi udara tinggi, panas pembakaran tidak te-recovery, dan hanya dihasilkan abu yang nilai jualnya sangat rendah. Energi semestinya dimanfaatkan dengan bijak apalagi era krisis energi membayangi di depan mata. Pilihan ada di tangan Anda, apakah tetap mempertahankan cara lama dengan banyak efek negatif bagi lingkungan dan nyaris tanpa nilai tambah ataukah menggunakan pilihan teknologi yang mampu menjadi solusi sampah tersebut dan menghasilkan produk energi yang memang sangat dibutuhkan oleh semua pihak?



Ban-ban bekas mobil atau truk Anda menumpuk dan hanya menimbulkan masalah lingkungan dan kesehatan. Daerah-daerah pertambangan dengan ribuan dumptruck-nya ataupun perkotaan besar mengalami masalah untuk mengolah tumpukan bekas. Mengapa tidak mengolahnya lagi menjadi produk bahan bakar yang memang akan selalu Anda butuhkan? Teknologi pirolisis kontinyu kembali mampu memberikan solusi bagi Anda. Ban yang pembuatanya berasal dari material antara lain karet, arang, dan berbagai hidrokarbon sebagai perekat campurannya akan kembali terdekomposisi menjadi produk bahan bakar cair dan padat. Syngas yang dihasilkan akan optimal sebagai pembangkit listrik Anda. Masalah Anda teratasi, tidak menimbulkan kerusakan lingkungan dan mendapatkan nilai tambah dari produk akhirnya. Selain analisis ekonomi dan aspek lingkungan, tools neraca massa dan neraca energi akan Anda butuhkan untuk menganalisis seberapa efektif teknologi ini. Dan akhirnya pilihan ada di tangan Anda!
