General information
- Short Summary
- Turkish Company is developing a waste-to-energy solution using food waste to produce biogas for combined heat and power generation. The project aims to increase energy efficiency and reduce environmental impact. The company seeks technology providers and research partners to enhance reactor efficiency, integrate energy into factory operations, and explore system replicability.
- Full Description
-
A Turkish company is developing an on-site, waste-to-energy solution that focuses on converting food waste and other organic waste streams generated within its manufacturing facilities into valuable biogas. This biogas will be utilized in a combined heat and power (CHP) system to produce both electricity and heat, thereby improving energy efficiency and reducing the facility's environmental footprint.
The project aims to optimize anaerobic digestion processes to achieve higher biogas yields, ensure process stability, and fully integrate the system into the company's existing energy infrastructure. Through this initiative, the company targets significant reductions in waste disposal costs and greenhouse gas emissions, while advancing circular economy practices within the industrial environment.
The innovative aspect of this project lies in the development of modular, containerized, and scalable biogas production units that can be rapidly deployed on-site across various facilities. Unlike conventional large-scale biogas plants, this system is designed to be adaptable to different types of food waste profiles and varying production capacities. In addition, the project will incorporate advanced digital monitoring and real-time process optimization to ensure maximum efficiency and operational flexibility.
The company is actively seeking technology partners and solution providers experienced in reactor design, biogas system components, energy conversion technologies, and digital process management to co-develop and implement this system. - Advantages and Innovations
