CARTIF PROJECTS
ALL-TO-GAS
Biomass and residues as precursors of the coupled prodcution of hydrogen and methane in the new scenario of industrial energy transition.
Description
The main objective of this propoal is the development of a process technique and economically viable ans sustainable by the integration of technologies (HTC, pyrogasification, biological methanation, reforming) for the conversión of biomass and residues, both dry and with a high content in humidity, in green methane and green hydrogen.
In this way the use of this renewable gases in industry will be boost, by providing on the demand pint (industrial installation), with production insitu support by the gas network when it is necessary.
Objectives
- Development of the pirogasification process for the subsequent valuation of Sygas Biooil and Biochar.
- Development of HTC process for the valorisation of wet residues.
- Enrichment of anaerobic methanogenic communities with high affinity for H2, CO2 and CO.
- Optimization of the refurbished methane by the use of catalysers.
- Optimization of a syngas cleaning system in the pyrogasification and HTC processes.
Actions
- Compilation of raw materials
- Research of the pirogasification process.
- Research of hydrothermal carbonization process.
- Research of biological methanisation processes
- Research of green methane catalytic reforming process
- Research about syngas cleaning and conditioning processes.
- Study of an integrated model of matter and energy.
Expected Results
- Optimized pirogasification process to obtain Syngas, Biooil and Biochar.
- Optimized HTC process for the transformation with high content in humidity in biofuels
- Obtaining high performance anaerobic methanogenic communities with high affinity for H2, CO2 and CO.
- Process of optimised catalytic methane reforming.
- System for cleaning the gas generated in the pyrogasification and optimised HTC processes.

Circular Economy and Biotechnolgy projects:
LIFE VALPORC
The goal of the LIFE + VALPORC is to demonstrate a sustainable alternative to the management of pig carcasses and manure, focusing on the environmental problems derived from its current management and valorizing these wastes by transforming them into biofuels (biogas and biodiesel) and organic fertilizers,
LIFE SMART Hospital
The LIFE SMART Hospital Project has promoted the sustainability of the health sector through the deployment of best practices and available technologies, training programs and replication of experience.
VALOR-PLUS
The VALOR-PLUS supports the realisation of sustainable, economically viable closed loop integrated biorefineries through the development of new knowledge, (bio-)technologies and products that enable valorisation of key biorefinery by-products.
LIFE COLRECEPS
The main objective of the COLRECEPS project is the implementation of a prototype demonstration plant to recycle residual EPS and obtain EPS beads. With these pearls, new recycled EPS prototype products will be manufactured.
LIFE REVAWASTE
The LIFE REVAWASTE project (www.revawaste.eu) was born proposing the sustainable management of a broad spectrum of waste in an integrated plant or “Mixed Plant”.
LIFE EUCALYPTUS ENERGY
The LIFE EUCALYPTUS ENERGY Project consists of the pyrolysis of eucalyptus biomass for the production of electricity and biochar. It is intended to make use of the residual biomass of eucalyptus forest exploitation.
RECALZA
RECALZA proposes to develop a chemical recycling process of the generated polyurethane foam residues, to obtain the polyol again and re-manufacture new products (recycled soles) that meet the requirements for the footwear sector.
CONREPOL
The CONREPOL project will evaluate both chemical procedures based on the use of compounds that increase the surface polarity (silane coupling agents) of the waste and physical treatments with the same objective.
GREEN-CAR
The GREEN CAR ecodesign Project applies the ecodesign methodology to several components of the “electric vehicle” system: batteries, converter, charging points, conditioning systems and auxiliary systems from renewable sources
LIFE RESCATAME
RESCATAME represents a new system for the sustainable management of traffic through the use of models that predict pollution levels, which are supported by data collected by the network of air quality sensors, and that can help to execute a rapid action.
BIOREFINERÍA FT
The FT BIOREFINERY Project consists in developing a technology that allows obtaining 2nd generation liquid biofuels (synthetic diesel) and electrical energy, through the application of gasification and co-gasification processes, of different types of solid and / or liquid waste ( herbaceous biomass, lignocellulosic, glycerin, etc.)
BIALEMA
BIALEMA: RED for the production of Biofuels and its impact on food, energy and the environment. Conducted by Dr. Antonio Francisco Valdes Delgado (CUBAENERGIA).
BIORECOS
The BIORECOS Project aims to design and build a demonstration plant of a modular nature that allows, through pyrolysis, the production of charcoal and / or active coal, as well as the generation of electrical energy.
ENHANCE HEALTH
The ENHANCE HEALTH project focuses on environmental and health concerns related to air pollution produced by industries and waste incinerators in urban areas.
