Why pyrolysis?

The disadvantages of biomass (CASE) can be overcome by local small scale conversion of biomass into a liquid energy carrier. Pyrolysis technology offers the following unique selling points:

    a>Pyrolysis oil is produced from non-food biomass and is therefore a second generation biofuel which does not compete with the food chain.
    b>The local decentralized production of pyrolysis oil seperates out the minerals in the biomass so they can be recycled to maintain the soil quality.
    c>Due to its energy density and liquid form existing infrastructure can be used for transporting pyrolysis oil.
    d>GHG  savings (GreenHouse Gas) of our raw pyrolysis oil are well above that of other biofuels. (85-90% for heat and power applications)
    e>Pyrolysis oil can be stored for long periods of time, and is therefore available when necessary.
    f>It can substitute fossil fuels in heat and power applications and thereby provide peak renewable power to complement other (intermittent) renewable power sources such as wind and solar.
