This is where it runs.
Our first continuous pyrolysis plant – around the clock, EBC-certified, right in the heart of the Stuttgart region.
The plant
No renderings.
Real technology.
Technology
What pyrolysis is –
and why it works.
Combustion releases CO₂. Pyrolysis does not. Instead, biomass is converted at high temperatures in the absence of oxygen – the carbon is retained and the energy is made usable.
The result: stable biochar that binds CO₂ for centuries, and usable heat that feeds directly into the district heating network. Two products, one process, zero waste.
Wood residues, green waste and other untreated biomass from the region are delivered, sorted and prepared.
At 550–800°C in the absence of oxygen, the carbon in the biomass is not burned but converted into stable biochar. The reaction is exothermic – it generates energy.
EBC-certified biochar for soils, substrates and CO₂ certificates – and usable heat for the local district heating networks. Continuously, around the clock.
Our technology
Autarkize –
technology we trust.
For our plant in Leinfelden we deliberately chose the technology of Autarkize. The manufacturer's continuous pyrolysis systems are designed for industrial long-term stability – and that is exactly what we need for 24/7 operation.
What convinced us:
Next location
Leinfelden is just the beginning.
Where does the next plant go?
We are looking for sites where biomass is available and heat can be put to use – municipal utilities, industrial operations, biogas plants, agriculture. Get in touch.
