The Greentech Solutions division focuses on process engineering developments in the areas of energy and resource efficiency, water, and the environment. We develop environmentally friendly production methods and optimize processes, integrate renewable energies, and improve water quality and environmental compatibility. Our R&D services are aimed at companies that want to work with us to develop, test, and implement sustainable technologies in a practical and cost-effective manner. We support you from feasibility studies and pilot plants to the implementation of processes on a technical scale – always with a focus on the environment, cost-effectiveness, and regulation.
Energy efficiency and bioenergy: We develop and optimize energy-efficient processes and utilize and integrate bioenergy. Energy balances and efficiency measures enable us to reduce costs and emissions. The goal is to achieve robust, maximum process stability.
Circular economy and resource efficiency: We develop solutions for waste and wastewater treatment as well as the recovery of nutrients, water, and materials. By transforming waste into valuable materials, we optimize resource flows and make disposal routes obsolete.
Water management and process hygiene: We improve water quality, reduce environmental impact, and promote water reuse. Microbiological process hygiene measures contribute to process stability. Monitoring and control concepts ensure robust operation and transparency.
Membrane technology: We develop, characterize, and integrate membrane-based separation processes. This includes material development, module and system technology, and surface modifications. We test and evaluate membranes in laboratory and pilot plants and support scale-up to industrial application. Another focus is on integration into complete process chains – an integral part of all other topics.
Analytics: We offer an expanded range of analyses by developing analytical methods – from sampling and sample pretreatment to quantitative analysis. One focus is on non-target analytics. Thanks to our accreditation according to DIN EN ISO 17025, our methods meet the highest standards.
Digital twins, sensor technology, and AI analytics support developments and enable real-time monitoring, forecasting, and data-driven optimization. Demonstrators and pilot plants accompany the market launch, and LCA, TEA, and scenario analyses provide reliable environmental and economic indicators so that informed investment and transformation decisions can be made.
