Research & Development projects

Heat Recovery

  • Develop heat recovery system for intensive poultry production buildings utilising Thermal wheel technology & dust suppression.  

  • Assess and contrast with alternative heat recovery methods.

  • CFD modelling, prototype construction

Waste to Energy - Coir pellet

  • Commercial Horticulture - Manufacture 6mm pellet from spent coir matting .

  • Carry out large scale  combustion trials to assess materials handling, energy, emissions and compliance.

Pyrolysis & Biochar

  • Variety of waste products run through pyrolysis process to assess viability and biochar credentials.

  •  Innovate UK Engineering Partner for Pyrolysis of Onion Waste project .

  • Small scale trial to analyse input material & biochar output, leading to large scale trials and small scale plant trials.

CHP

  • Development & assessment with manufactures ORC, hot gas ORC, steam piston pump generation
