Cambi has signed a contract with Sasol, an integrated energy and chemicals
company, to supply a thermal hydrolysis pilot plant to process industrial
sludge.
The commercial trials will use thermal hydrolysis at Sasol's Secunda
coal-to-liquids facilities in South Africa. Sasol is assessing options to
refunnel industrial biological sludge as feedstock for the gasification process,
in an effort to shift to lower-carbon and renewable energy sources, as part of
its greenhouse gas reduction objectives and roadmap.
Cambi's thermal hydrolysis process (THP) system was selected due to its proven
effectiveness in reducing sludge viscosity. Should the trials be a success,
thermal hydrolysis may be adopted at full scale to support the reduction of both
Sasol's overall generated waste volumes, as well as the site's carbon footprint.
"The pilot project is the first of its kind in the world and underscores that,
apart from sewage sludge, thermal hydrolysis may be suitable for a range of
other organic substrates coming from agricultural or industrial processes", said
CEO Eirik Fadnes.
The pilot plant is scheduled for commissioning this year.
