Recycling preceeds gasification.

One of the keys to the success of TBE's technology is carefully separating and sorting the biomass before it enters the gasification process. This work is done by Taylor Recycling, which like TBE, is a division of Taylor Global.

TBE's process is designed to be "flexible." That means it can accept a very wide variety of biomass materials as feedstock, not just wood or agricultural residues as many facilities do. Our technology can process Commercial, Bulky, Residential, C&D and wood waste. But not all waste is used for producing energy in TBE's system; paper, metal, cardboard and other materials are recycled. The remainder, including food, natural textiles and other organics, is converted into a synthesis gas (Syngas). Taylor Biomass Energy's proprietary technology utilizes these residue materials from Mixed Solid Waste to create clean, renewable energy.

The technology recycles too.

TBE's gasification technology is designed to operate efficiently and that means reducing waste. Hot steam from the gasification chamber is redirected to the beginning of the biomass preparation phase of the cyclce. Ash produced at the end of the gasification process has the potential to be recycled as an additive for concrete and other products.
