We take the time to understand our customer’s business and technical needs by studying the waste streams that need to be treated and assess the waste compatibility with our technology.
Chemical, pharmaceuticals, oil & gas, and food & beverage manufacturers are increasingly seeking to extract the valuable resources locked within their waste streams, as many are incentivised by net zero initiatives as well as the desire to use renewable gas to fuel their waste treatment processes.
Our technology can be installed at the source of the waste in the industrial site and is able to convert 99% of the organics into pollutant-free methane-rich gas that can be injected on the grid or used on-site. Moreover, we can recover and clean the water contained in the waste after it has been treated, and it can be reused or safely discharged.
We have validated our technology with more than 20 different industrial feedstocks from clients in Europe and the USA including residues from monomer production, plastic residues, paint residues and molasses residues among others.
Municipal waste, such as sewage sludge, contains essential nutrients for agriculture and has traditionally been used as fertiliser. However, the increasing concentration of heavy metals and micropollutants in sewage sludge has led to strict regulations concerning its disposal, meaning the majority of sewage sludge is now disposed of through incineration. This method results in the release of large amounts of CO2 and wastes large volumes of water. In addition, the energy is generated in the form of heat cannot be stored or transported long distances.
We have validated our technology with digested and undigested sewage sludge from several Waste Water Treatment Plants (WWTPs) in Switzerland and France.
We take the time to understand our customer’s business and technical needs by studying the waste streams that need to be treated and assess the waste compatibility with our technology.
We perform tests on our technology prototype using a sample of the customer’s waste and conduct a feasibility study. Based on the results of the tests we will design a customised solution for the specific waste, taking into account the unique waste attributes, quantity and spatial constraints.
Following the customer’s feedback from the feasibility study, an optimal solution is agreed including technical characteristics of the unit at scale, business model and financials.
We build, set-up and commission TreaTech’s treatment equipment on-site by connecting it to the customer’s existing infrastructure, process and making sure the unit performs as expected.
