🏢 Company Overview
B-Plas Sbrl is an innovative Italian company specialised in advanced sludge treatment solutions for municipal, industrial, and agro-industrial wastewater streams. Its mission is to transform materials traditionally considered waste into valuable resources through sustainable, circular-economy technologies, significantly reducing the amount of sludge sent for disposal while generating environmental and economic benefits.
At the core of B-Plas’s technological approach is HTC, a thermochemical process that represents a key element of the company’s modular sludge treatment systems. HTC treats organic sludge at high temperatures under self-generated pressure, converting it into hydrochar, a carbon-rich solid with high energy content. This process allows a substantial reduction in sludge mass and volume (up to approximately 80 %) and improves its downstream processability.
The HTC stage is fully integrated into B-Plas solutions such as the B-Sludge module, designed for efficient sludge volume reduction, and serves as the technological foundation for more advanced systems, including B-Energy, which supports enhanced biogas production, and B-Poly, which enables the conversion of carbon into volatile fatty acids and, ultimately, biodegradable bioplastics such as PHA.
| ⚙️ We operate laboratory-scale HTC prototypes with a reactor volume of 5 liters. In addition, we have laboratory-scale filter press prototypes for solid–liquid separation. The system is used to treat sewage sludge from different origins, including municipal, industrial, and agro-industrial wastewater treatment processes. |
