Research & Technology Development

BTG develops new processes and products within the Research & Technology Development (RTD) department. In addition, the department carries out contract research for third parties.

Our own RTD activities are based on thermochemical conversion of biomass and residues, while contract research can cover a much wider area. A large number of test facilities are available to perform various activities efficiently. Special test facilities are also realized according to the customer's wishes.

Thanks to our specialist expertise and years of practical experience, we can advise you on various biomass conversion processes.

We carry out contract research for third parties in the field of biomass conversion and chemical process technology

If you have an idea, we can turn it into a concrete product thanks to the RTD department

All our products and processes are once started as an idea at RTD.

You can also contact us in the field of technical due diligence

We are also happy to use the facilities in our lab for your specific purposes
