Biomass & Waste-to-X

Turn waste and biomass into power, hydrogen & fuels.

We convert municipal waste, agricultural residues, and biomass into power, hydrogen, methanol, and SAF — through anaerobic digestion, composting, and gasification. Technology provider and end-to-end execution partner, from feedstock and concept to commissioning.

Feedstocks

Waste streams and biomass alike.

Municipal waste

Wet municipal organics and the dried / RDF fraction of MSW — the daily, predictable city stream.

Agricultural residues

Crop and agro-industrial residues — straw, husk, bagasse, press mud, and processing by-products.

Forestry & biomass

Woody biomass, forestry residues, and dedicated biomass — a gasifier-ready feed after drying.

Pathways

Feedstock and moisture drive the route.

High-moisture organics suit biological routes directly; the dried and woody fraction suits thermochemical gasification. We pick the route — or the mix — that fits your feedstock, scale, and offtake.

Wet / biological

For high-moisture organics

  • —Anaerobic digestion → biogas → power & heat
  • —Compressed bio-gas (CBG / Bio-CNG) — SATAT offtake
  • —AD → biomethane → hydrogen via reforming
  • —Aerobic composting — lowest cost and risk
Dried / thermochemical

For the dried & woody fraction

  • —Low-cost drying (solar where climate allows) to a gasifier-ready feed
  • —Gasification of dried / RDF feed → clean syngas
  • —Syngas → power, hydrogen, methanol, or FT liquids
  • —One platform — end-product chosen to match offtake
The gasification platform

One feed, many products.

The same dried feed and gasifier can pivot end-product as offtake and policy evolve — power and hydrogen at city scale now; methanol and SAF at regional scale.

Power

Syngas to engine or turbine — grid-tied or captive.

Hydrogen

Syngas to H₂ (BG-H2) — our deepest IP; links to our Green Hydrogen practice.

Methanol

Catalytic synthesis — a drop-in chemical and marine fuel; best at scale.

FT diesel / SAF

Fischer-Tropsch liquids — sustainable aviation fuel with strong policy pull.

Plus bio-CNG and compost from the wet / biological routes — the full stream put to use, not landfilled.

Scope

Feedstock to commissioning.

Feedstock & technology assessment

Characterise the stream, match the route(s), and select technology — vendor-neutral.

Feasibility & techno-commercial

Yields, capex / opex, revenue, and payback across routes — to DPR-grade.

FEED & engineering

Process design, mass & energy balance, drying, gas cleanup, and balance-of-plant.

EPC & commissioning

End-to-end execution as technology provider and integration partner.

Offtake & enabling schemes

Structuring around SBM-U 2.0, GOBARdhan, and SATAT (CBG) — plus H₂ and fuel offtake.

Phased pilot-to-scale

Anchor on bankable routes first; add gasification and hydrogen as offtake matures.

How we work

Bankable first. Strategic upside next.

We anchor on the proven, bankable routes for your stream — CBG and composting for wet organics, gasification-to-power on the dried fraction — then layer hydrogen, methanol, or SAF as offtake and scale mature. No single-technology bias: we design around your feedstock and the funder in view.

Part of the Umagine / H2C0 clean-energy stack — so the hydrogen output connects directly to our Green Hydrogen and Fuel Cell practices.

Currently applying this approach with an Indian city corporation — from waste profiling through a phased pilot-to-scale roadmap.
