Feed Preparation Lab

Depending on their origin and pretreatment, feedstocks for pyrolysis undergo several preparation steps in order to condition them for use in our pyrolysis plants and relevant feedstock analyses. Various facilities are available for this purpose in the Feed Preparation Lab. In addition to particle size adjustment and homogenization, there is also the possibility of introducing additives for pyrolysis.
