Catalytic Depolymerization

UNIWASTEC’s catalytic pressureless depolymerization process converts agricultural waste (biomass/liquid manure) into climate-neutral fuels. UNIWASTEC’s catalytic pressureless depolymerization process converts agricultural waste (biomass/liquid manure) into climate-neutral fuels. In the process, the cellulose chains of the biomass are broken down and the hydrocarbons are isolated, thus turning agricultural residues into bio-crude oil, which is refined into third-generation synthetic fuels in a further step. Depending on the location, the system can be supplied via the public grid or operated as an island plant with a CHP unit. During island operation, less than 10% of the fuel produced is required for the system’s own energy supply.
