New Bio Solutions Decades of R&D The Initial Idea of REnescience 1990-2000 2002 2005 Smaller power plants using bio fuels Multi-fuel on central power plants Experiences led to DONG starting project in 2G bioethanol based on enzyme treatment of wheat straw Curious scientists made an equal sign between enzyme treatment on farm land waste and household waste REnescience journey began 2005 2006 2007 2009 2012 2016-2017 1 2 3 4 5 6 3
REnescience Value from Waste made simple Concept and Technology Description 4
REnescience Innovation and core technology Enzymatic process Enzymes Act as biological catalyst accelerating degradation of organic elements Assay optimised to waste composition (dosage and cocktail) Cleaning agent (e.g. elimination of labels and adhesives) Bio-liquid Low viscosity High biogas potential (high VS, COD) Bio-mechanical separation Closed bio-reactor designed for optimal enzymes activity and waste throughput Safe operations No CH 4 emission before AD (ph<7) Slow moving and rotating equipment Continuous operations (no batch) Gentle process that does not require material shredding Flexible back-end optimised according to market economics (recycling vs. energy recovery) Limited/no suspended solids Bulky refuse Water Enzymes REnescience core technology Unsorted MSW Pre-sorting Mixing Bioreactor Separation Wet AD Ordinary waste equipment Products 5
REnescience Value from Waste Key Products Waste Becomes Valuable When Sorted Efficiently Organic bioliquid Recyclables Refuse-derived fuel (RDF) Solid recovered fuel (SRF) High biogas potential Easy upgrade to green gas Storable & low in dry matter Plastics and metals Possibility for further sorting and recycling Clean and dry products Mono-stream sorting Storable Mixed plastic, foils and textiles Possibility for further sorting and recycling High calorific value Low moisture content Low contamination Storable 6
