Wavefuels II - fuldskala test og demonstration af mikrobølge-cracking af biomasse til bioolie

The purpose of the WaveFuels II project is to demonstrate under real world conditions and subsequently bring to market an innovative power-2-X technology – microwave cracking – that can make significant contributions to limiting global warming while at the same time improve resource utilization and handling of organic waste materials.

Project description

The WaveFuels II project will test, demonstrate, and optimize Organic Fuel Technology’s technology for microwave cracking of biomass to biooil and biochar in full scale, thereby making the technology and the solutions it offers ready for full commercialization. 

Microwave-cracking with Organic Fuel Technology’s patented biomass-processing system thus opens a new Power-to-X pathway, where power used to convert sludge and biogas digestate to biofuels and store carbon by utilizing this power as stable and uniform electromagnetic field of a size and strength that has not previously been replicated anywhere in the world.

WaveFuels offers a modular solution which is therefore easy to scale, reducing plant design costs and enabling easier commercialisation. A single processing plant will be able to handle 2,800 tonnes of dry matter per year, corresponding to more than 10,000 tons of biomass with a dry matter content of 25%, and convert this into 1.100 tons of bio-oil and 400 tons of carbon in biochar. A single WaveFuels plant has the capacity to displace more than 4,000 tons of CO2e from the earth’s atmosphere per year.
