Compact Syngas Solutions

Green fuels for a clean future

Our patented gasification process creates power, heat and hydrogen from non-recyclable waste and biomass. CSS MicroHubs are like having your own combined waste management and decentralised energy system. They can operate off-grid to provide power, heat and hydrogen and fuel wherever you need it.

Turning waste into clean energy

Waste in landfill decomposes and emits harmful gases including carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere.

We use gasification to turn that waste into high-quality, low-carbon syngas – a synthesis gas made up of various compounds.

This syngas can then be used to create, power, heat, hydrogen and liquid fuels.

Our patented technology

We use downdraft gasification technology to convert biomass and waste into syngas, and our patented process produces clean fuels of the highest quality.

Our process supports decarbonisation by capturing carbon in the form of biochar – a charcoal-like substance that can be used as a fertiliser or for sequestration.

And we’re pioneering the use of water to capture carbon and avoid the use of toxic chemicals like amines.

Our MicroHubs can also make 99.999%-pure hydrogen with our patented Pressure Swing Adsorption technique – an effective way of creating low-carbon hydrogen fuel where it’s needed.

The CSS MicroHub

  • Energy from waste

    Our MicroHubs can run 24/7 on waste products like biomass, waste wood and other non-recyclable materials.

  • The outputs you want

    MicroHubs can produce power, heat and hydrogen, and can power itself to give you energy that’s 100% off-grid.

  • Carbon capture tech

    Our MicroHubs are carbon neutral thanks to the naturally lower emissions from biogenic feedstocks and our carbon capture tech.

  • Pays for itself

    It can take as little as 2.7 years for a MicroHub to pay for itself, when considering gate fees, wholesale prices and other factors.

  • Small and effective

    The compact MicroHubs have a smaller footprint, making them easier to install and gain planning permission.

  • Add more as you need

    Pick the MicroHub you need for your required energy output, then add extra modules when demand grows.

Feedstock

  • grade c waste wood

    Grade C waste wood

    This material often comes from construction and demolition sources, and waste recyclers commonly separate it out as fuels for boilers.

  • clean chip wood

    Clean woodchip

    Often recovered from forestry and sawmill activities, this clean product is perfect for gasification, but can cost more than grade B and C waste wood.

  • compost oversize

    Compost oversize

    This is rejected material from garden waste recycling material. It is often contaminated by plastic film, making it more difficult to recycle.

  • tea prunings

    Tea prunings

    CSS is working closely with the Kenyan tea sector to help decarbonise the industry. Local feedstocks like tea prunings, maize shanks and bamboo all work in the MicroHub.

  • rdf pellets

    RDF pellets

    Refuse-derived fuel is great for gasification. MicroHubs accept low-grade briquettes and pellets, which minimises preparation costs and ensures gate fees are still received.

  • picture on man on site

    Bagasse

    This byproduct from sugar production is also a suitable fuel. Without being used for fuel, it is often burned or left to degrade, polluting the environment.
