“Green Methanol from waste — true island operation with zero grid
connection.”
A World‑Exclusive System
Intelligent
Microwave Steam Plasma Conversion Turning Waste into High‑Value Energy
Molecules
Waste → Syngas → Green
Methanol → Green Hydrogen → Green Ammonia

The synthesis gas is passed through catalysts, producing methanol. Methanol
is a globally traded, easily stored, and easily transported liquid energy carrier.
· High energy density: ~22.7 MJ/kg
· The carbon in the waste becomes a valuable product, not pollution
· Methanol production is a stable, well‑established
industrial process
Methanol or ammonia can be easily converted into high‑purity hydrogen.
3 tons of RDF → ~1 ton of carbon → ~2 tons of methanol → ~375 kg hydrogen → ~2 tons ammonia
· This yields 4× more hydrogen than direct gasification of waste
· Methanol is a liquid hydrogen carrier: no high pressure, no cryogenic storage, simple logistics
From the synthesis gas (H2 ~70% CO2
~30%) produced from waste, we can generate electricity, methanol, or ammonia. Both methanol and ammonia act as liquid hydrogen carriers, delivering large
quantities of hydrogen exactly where it is needed.


Our team has developed an integrated waste‑to‑methanol and ammonia process that combines microwave plasma conversion, advanced
gas cleaning, methanol synthesis, hydrogen production from methanol reforming,
and ammonia synthesis — all within a circular, CO₂‑neutral system.
1. Waste →
Carbonization Mixed biogenic and fossil waste is carbonized, producing
solid carbon and pyrolysis gas as feedstock for the next stage.
2. Microwave Plasma Conversion A microwave plasma reactor
transforms the carbonized material into high‑quality syngas (CO, H₂,
CO₂). The plasma energy is self‑generated, making the reactor
heating internally powered.
3. Gas Cleaning Impurities are removed to ensure a clean synthesis gas
stream suitable for downstream chemical conversion.
4. CO₂ Recycling CO₂ from reforming and syngas is fully recycled back
into methanol synthesis, maintaining a closed carbon loop.
5. Methanol Synthesis Methanol is produced using Cu/ZnO catalysts. The reactor’s
cooling system uses waste‑heat
recovery, improving overall efficiency.
6. Hydrogen From Methanol Reforming Instead of electrolysis, hydrogen is generated directly
from methanol reforming: CH₃OH + H₂O →
3H₂ + CO₂ This creates an internal hydrogen cycle and eliminates
external electricity demand for H₂ production.
7. Ammonia Synthesis Hydrogen reacts with nitrogen to produce ammonia: 3H₂
+ N₂ → 2NH₃ Final products: Methanol (CH₃OH) and Ammonia (NH₃).

Two
valuable outputs from waste: methanol & ammonia
This integrated
approach demonstrates how advanced plasma technology and circular carbon
chemistry can transform waste into strategic chemicals — sustainably,
efficiently, and at industrial scale.
"Waste‑to‑Methanol —
Fully Autonomous, Industrial‑Scale Operation”
Autonomous methanol production from
waste, powered by our own on‑site electricity generation. This enables
safe, continuous, industrial‑scale operation exactly where the waste is
produced — even in locations without any possibility of grid connection —
minimizing logistics and maximizing efficiency.”

⚡ Electricity
Output: 2 MW – 12 MW per Module
Each processing module can generate 2 to 12 megawatts of continuous
electrical power, depending on the waste
composition and the selected operating mode. This modular design enables
scalable deployment — from compact industrial units to multi‑module,
utility‑scale power blocks.
Electricity production can operate independently or as part of the integrated value chain (syngas → methanol → hydrogen → ammonia),
providing flexible revenue streams and grid‑support capabilities.

The
power plant’s energy source is syngas from waste gasification.
We have developed a two-stage waste gasification system using
a
New and unique
is the 50% syngas recirculation → self-stabilizing, energy-saving
operation
• The recycled gas balances the fluctuating heating value of
municipal solid waste (MSW).
• The reactor thermal balance is nearly self-sustaining,
with minimal external energy requirements.
• Recirculation increases the lower heating value (LHV) of
the gas, making the turbine branch more efficient.
• Such a recirculation logic is not present in any
traditional gasifier.
Microwave steam
plasma – ultra-clean, high-intensity conversion
• Microwave-excited vapor plasma provides equivalent
reaction intensity above 1400–1500°C.
• Complete tar and plastic degradation at the molecular
level.
• Turbine-grade synthesis gas rich in H₂/CO, without
nitrogen dilution.
• NOx-free operation, as the process is completely oxygen-
and air-free.
• The CaO–MgO phases of the dolomite bind HCl and SO₂,
stabilize the slag and reduce corrosion.
Microwave steam
plasma in technology
• Electrodeless operation (no erosion, no
metal contamination)
• High reactive, OH and H radical
density
• Uniform volumetric heating
• No combustion; no nitrogen dilution
• Function: Provides the thermal and chemical environment
necessary for the complete decomposition of organic materials and the initiation
of steam reforming reactions.
Oxygen-free
operation → lower cost, cleaner gas
• No air, no oxygen → no NOx, no nitrogen dilution.
• Gas heating value is 30-40% higher than in air/oxygen
gasifiers.
• No expensive NOx treatment systems → lower CAPEX/OPEX.
Modular,
scalable, decentralized WtE platform
• Small footprint, fast installation, containerizable
modules.
• Ideal for industrial parks, cities, waste treatment
plants.
• The system does not burn, so the strict regulations of classic
waste incinerators do not apply to it.
Comparison:
Conventional Gasification vs. Microwave Steam Plasma Technology
Conventional gasification operates at 800–1000 °C
using air or steam, producing syngas mixed with tar and soot.
Its scrubber system generates large amounts of contaminated
wastewater and 1–1.5 t/day of inert sludge, requiring costly disposal.
Microwave steam plasma gasification, by contrast, runs at
1200–1500 °C in a clean plasma environment.
It yields ultra‑pure syngas (CO + H₂)
and only 0.2–0.3 t/day of inert salt sludge, which can be recycled or
crystallized through vacuum evaporation.
The process achieves near‑zero waste, closed‑loop
water reuse, and significantly lower operating costs..
Our
global novelty is the green hydrogen technology
from our residential and tire waste, which is a Hungarian
development, not only "better" than existing solutions - it
represents a completely new category on the global market. Below is a precise
summary of what constitutes the true novelty and why no comparable integrated,
catalyst free, grid independent hydrogen platform exists today.The Current
Global Landscape — and Why Others Cannot Do What You Can. Today, the global
market is dominated by three technological pathways:

(A) Water
Electrolysis (PEM, Alkaline, SOEC)
• 50–65 kWh/kg H₂ electricity demand
• Fully grid dependent
• Water demand: 9–12 L/kg H₂
• Cannot utilize waste as feedstock ➡ Technically and energetically not an alternative to your
system.
(B) Catalytic
Gasification / Reforming (Ni, Fe, Co catalysts)
• Tar formation → catalyst poisoning
• Rapid deactivation due to chlorine and sulfur
• Slag formation → reactor blockage
• 800–1100°C, but not plasma ➡ Your catalyst free microwave plasma solution is in a
completely different league.
(C) Plasma Waste
Treatment (face plasma, torch plasma)
• 3000–5000°C, but electrode based
• Electrode erosion → high OPEX
• Not optimized for hydrogen production
• No autonomous energy loop ➡ Your 915MHz microwave, electrode less plasma is unique
worldwide.
There is
currently no technology that can produce hydrogen:
• from RDF,
• without catalysts,
• using electrode less microwave plasma,
• with a fully autonomous energy cycle,
• at 99.999% purity,
• with 28–34 kWh/kg specific electricity demand,
• without water and without grid connection.
Novelty (Global
Level) The system introduces multiple innovations:
• Autothermal pyrolysis + pre chlorine removal + pre
desulfurization in a single step
• Self-heating
• Localized steam cooling to prevent ash melting
• Electrode less 915MHz microwave plasma applied to RDF
derived feedstock
• Catalyst free, tar free hydrogen production
• Closed loop energy cycle (mini WtE → plasma →
steam)

My philosophy
My philosophy is, never be jealous of others' success. If
you can't win a race, help the one ahead of you break the record. Your candle
doesn't lose its light by lighting another. Let's follow this example of
supporting and lifting each other up! This is a beautiful philosophy!
Supporting and lifting others not only helps them succeed, but also creates a
positive and encouraging environment for everyone. It's like spreading kindness
and positivity, which can make a big difference in the world." ![]()
