Nature provides her own recyclers. Every day billions upon billions of microbes are at work devouring all of nature's organic waste.

In an age when carbon levels in soils are declining, man-made atmospheric carbon dioxide is increasing and energy resources are declining rapidly, we must seek the most efficient use of our resources including "waste".

We can help to maximise the efficiency of your carbon reclamation from composting to anaerobic digestion, to high efficiency energy recovery through gasification/pyrolysis or biomass combustion, depending on the type of waste material.

projects

From Owners Engineer to Consulting Engineer, from technology due diligence (DD) to Financial DD, SES delivers value beyond engineering, supporting projects at each stage of the journey.

Our strategic alliance with supply and installation companies and a multi-billion dollar EPC engineering and construction company enables SES to guide you through the whole project development process from your initial concept to final build-out and commissioning. Respected legal partnerships ensure that the project is correctly structured for funding by our collaborating banks and funding institutions.

Processes
Process and technology selection is all about determining the most appropriate processes dependent upon the end products required and the most appropriate technologies for converting the materials to be recovered. This will be dependent upon the available markets for the recovered materials and the local demand for energy.

Waste Reduction for Quick Start improvements in your company's 'bottom line'.

Clean dry source separated organic materials lend themselves to either open windrow or in-vessel composting.

Wet organic materials lend themselves to Anaerobic Digestion (AD).

Dry calorific materials lend themselves to gasification or pyrolysis depending on their nature.
Pyrolysis of biodegradable material tends to result in a large amount of char production. If the processed feedstock is clean source separated material, this char can be used as a long-term source of soil organic carbon, a very valuable resource or if the processed material is from mixed waste then the char can be used as a filter carbon, carbon black or charcoal for industrial furnaces or gasifiers.

All of the above factors need to be taken into consideration when determining the most efficient use of the materials upon which to build your business plan to deliver bankable financial returns.
