Pyrolyisis
Accurate control of temperature field and residence time.
- Production of Tar free char
- Gaseous tar mainly composed of primary tar
A gasification technology solving the tar issue
What is NOTAR®?
NOTAR®, Clear, Clean and Green
Developed by Xylowatt and acquired by Xylergy in 2021, it is a patented technology that breaks new ground in the industry. This unique process produces a clean renewable gas from the gasification of natural and recycled wood biomass.
No tar
No heavy metal
No polluant
What are the advantages?
Biomass provides energy without disruption
While solar and wind energy are available intermittently, biomass can be stored. Biomass is a source of renewable energy available 24/7. The NOTAR® gasification technology offers an alternative for continuous renewable energy production from local and accessible biomass, including recycled wood, which is fully in line with the circular and environmental economy.
A gasification technology
The NOTAR® biomass gasification technology ensures that the syngas produced is tar-free and reduces operational costs. Clean syngas has been proven over different production sites.
Highly efficient
For the same electricity production, 30% less biomass is used compared to a standard process based on incineration combined with a steam cycle.
Local and circular
The size of the technology (around 6000 tons of biomass per year) allows us to realize projects with local biomass resources.
Zero waste
By reusing the available biomass, waste is avoided, the costs of disposal are significantly reduced and space is saved.
Flexibility of use
Different types of biomass can be used, such as natural wood, some types of recycled wood or bamboo. We are continuously testing new types of biomass to expand the offer.
Research & Development
We are committed to a sustainable future
At Xylergy, we know that the sustainability of our solutions depends on our ability to adapt and evolve continuously. Thanks to our strong relationships with major players in the gasification sector such as the University of Louvain-La-Neuve (UCL), CRMGroup or CIRAD, we are able to provide expert services and support the development of the technology and its commercial applications.
