Case stories
Sectors
What the final product of our plants looks like, depends upon the exact requirements from our customers. At Yilkins we evaluate their problems, challenges, goals and needs. The result is an environmentally friendly and customer-oriented solution which creates sustainable value for our customers.
Energy Power Plants
Striving for fossil-free generation of electricity and at the same time reducing CO2 footprints can be achieved by co-firing with biomass or switch to it entirely. By first torrefying the biomass and residues a higher calorific value is achieved and reduced overall emissions. The higher caloric value and hydrophobicity enable a significant reduction in transportation and storage costs.
Pellet Suppliers
Improving your existing process using Yilkins’ modular drying and torrefying equipment, means an immediate increase in efficiency. The result is a reduction of operational costs up to 50% compared to conventional systems. The deployment of the high-quality product leads to lower emissions.
Chemicals & Materials
Yilkins integrated and balanced torrefaction solution is ideal to create high quality products as raw material for a sustainable and circular route toward biobased materials and biochemicals. Biocoal can be used as a feedstock to produce green syngas and hydrogen or used to make (active) biochar for application as soil improvement.
Manufacturing Industry
Manufacturing industries are in a transition of converting their fossil feedstock – mainly coal – towards renewables. Dried or torrefied renewable product will play an important role in this transition within the manufacturing industry towards sustainable feedstock. Applications for torrefied product are being developed in the steel industry as replacement of fossil coal, while within the asphalt industry dried paper sludge can be used instead of virgin material as filler. The cement industry uses all kind of fossil fuels and torrefied RDF material could be used to replace coal.
