District heating networks, managed with central power generation, fueled by natural gas, diesel, BTZ, etc. The plants can be made for several purposes: Activities that involve the consumption of electric energy (in the case of incentive scheme) like industries, commerce, private homes, etc.. Activities involving consumption of thermal energy like industries, commerce, private homes, etc.. Activities of pure investment, that guarante annual returns without high risk and no need for special care through the exploitation of local resources like the timber industry, agricultural supply chains, food scraps, etc. All our plants are designed, built and installed with the best technology systems in accordance with the various directives; Machinery Directive Low Voltage Directive (LVD) Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) ATEX The system is deliver complete with Declaration of Conformity We are also able to design and build plant system upgrades in compliance with technical and security standards of the country of installation. 3

4 Our Consultancy Service In relation to energy use, environmental conditions and any available resources of the customers, we identify the type of plant and it s size of energy needed, through the creation of a targeted project. We can also provide consultancy for: Projects for energy efficiency in fields such us; civil, commercial, industrial and public Energy projects in agriculture Identification of Sponsor: investor / buyer of the project Search of Financial partner: Preparation of Project Financing Leasing / Loans Business Development Partnership with Banks, Institutional Investors and Private Funds Our Analysis and Design Service First of all we detect the state of being, that we hear and propose possible expectation in the development of the structure. Once we have come up the best implementation of energy source to be used, we designed the best system solution. Our focus is to prepare a solution that is able to put the customer in the position to readly return on the investment and reduce energy costs while respecting the environment and enhance the renewable resources locally available. Our Assistance Service During all stages of analysis, study, design, implementation and management the customer is assisted with care, whether by direct order or by a company delegated by the buyer. The service keeps a reference in mind the environmental philosophy of the company that is based in the careful and thorough consideration of all the technical, environmental, and economic uses of resources available in the area. 4

5 Our Research and Experimentation Area The research and experimentation area is the main sector of the investment for our group. Whenever a client s request offers the chance to explore new solutions, preliminary evaluation are performed and, in the event that they are perceived as research opportunities, aimed at a new approach for the enhancement of existing enterprise resources, once they are structured, their are proposed to clients. Once the cost assumptions are valued, the client can decide whether to share the research and experimentation or, otherwise, leave room to our group to take chance by their own initiative. The many researches done during 25 years of work by the Group have led to the development of major innovative solutions that reflect in achievements of great interest. Among these it is worth mentioning the innovations in key areas covered by our research: Jewelery sector: Treatment aimed at the recovery of copper from exhausted nitric acid solutions using potassium-based hydroxides recovery for the use with pure fertilizer without production of scraps. (Patented system). Using complex salts, in substitution to nitric acid, hydrochloric acid, soda for pickling, flight metals with use of titanium reactors (3 Patents currently sold to third parties). Use of anhydrous salts to animate the reeds to achieve lightness jewelry of considerable saving of copper, iron, aluminum (over 60%), their respective acids or pickling solutions and as well as many non-waste products (solutions proposed over the years 1998/2003 in the three centers of excellence in the jewelery sector; Arezzo, Vicenza and Valenza and corrently use). We also marketed in our own 52 reactors witch are currently in operation, between 2001 and 2003 with excellent references and satisfaction of our customers. Agriculture sector: Study and design of thermos-assisted hydroponics, aimed at re-use of water organic waste, saving energy and protecting the environment. Study and design of composting plant for livestock manure. Study, design and construction of gasification for energy exploitation of agricultural waste. Waste Recovery Sector: Tire treatment by depolymerization process. (4 patents including 2 international coverage of the rights of exploitation in most of the world). Currently is being prototyped an additional system that finalizes the energy recovery of the tires with biomass. The purpose is being project is the use of waste and biomass to locally produce energy. 5

6 OUR GASIFICATION PLANT Our project involves the construction of a plant for micro cogeneration that is based on using a technology that allows, through a process of gasification of raw material, the production of syngas. Such Gas, fed in endothermic engines connected to alternators, produces electricity with high performance both in terms of energy and environment; Additionally, the plant is also able to produce thermal energy in parallel (cogeneration), using the available heat in the parts of the engine or in the fumes it issues. Gasification is a thermo-chemical process by which the fuel is converted into synthesis gas (syngas) through a partial oxidation. The system can be of different sizes (from 50 to 200 Kwe on the basis Kwe mono-reactor or up to 1MWe with more parallel models) and of different production structure( electricity only or CHP). Its particular technology allows, unlike others on the market, the use of power inthe system,of any type of product with Organic matrix (Wood chips, pruning residues, organic waste, etc.) mixed with wood chips with tenors of humidity up to 50%. 6

7 The gasification section is composed by: The power supply system: with storage area and auger that transfers biomass from storage to reactor Gasification reactor: fireplace covered with refractory material with high resistance The gas purification system: with scrubbers wash, filter and a cyclone deminster. Section cooler and condensation: that retains water vapor and undesired products from the syngas to clean in combustion engines. After the process is obtained Syngas is purified. The syngas generated feeds one or more endothermic engines(according to the size of the plant) producing electricity, in parallel if you choose to operate in cogeneration, we can predict a section of heat production. The maintenance of the parallel and the constancy of the electrical power generated is guaranteed by the presence of a control unit of the engine of innovative conception. There are two types of systems that differ in matrices of power supply: Virgin biomass plants Biomass and waste carbon-based plants 7

8 BIOMASS The European Directive 2009/28 / EC defines biomass as "the biodegradable fraction of products, waste and Residues from biological origin agriculture (including substances vegetable and animal), forestry and related Industries including fisheries and aquaculture, as well as the biodegradable fraction of industrial and municipal waste. " The biomass used for energy purposes consists in all those organic materials which can be used as fuel or processed into other substances, solid, liquid, gaseous, easier to use in conversion plants. The biomass and fuels derived from them emit in the atmosphere, during combustion, an amount of carbon dioxide more or less corresponding to that which is absorbed previously by the plants during their growth process. The use of biomass for energy purposes does not cause the release of more carbon dioxide, the main cause of the greenhouse effect. Moreover, given their nature, biodegradability is a further advantage for the environment. HOW WE USE BIOMASS Our plants are designed to take advantage of these resources and through the technologies developed we are able to solve the most common problems that arise in their use. The technology developed allows in fact, unlike other in commerce, to use power in the system, of any type of product of organic matrix(wood chips, pruning residues, organic waste, etc.) mixed with wood chips having a moisture content up to 50%. The main biomasses usable are many, with a base of wood chips a mix may contain up to 50% moisture and a presence of fine parts up to 30%. 8
