Oberhausen, Germany

The Institute for Energy, Environment and Safety develops applied and custom-made process engineering technologies in areas of environmental and material technologies, process engineering and energy technology, committed to sustainable economic development, environmentally friendly technologies and innovative approaches including design and optimisation of biofuel production processes, specialising in biodiesel synthesis. Combine experience in the analysis of the reaction process of catalytic conversion using alkaline and in particular nitrogenous catalysts with our know-how in chemical and process engineering and detailed process modeling. Services cover the entire range from basic research to the process-technological concept of plants. Also has extensive know-how in the field of pyro-catalytic hydrocarbon synthesis from waste fats (Greasoline Technology).Has also developed a biogas plant running entirely on agricultural wastes (demonstrating that enzyme pretreatment can greatly increase gas yields).
