What the Project Is About
KORTOS: SOLUTIONS FOR THE VALORIZATION OF BYO-WASTE is an initiative dedicated to turning organic waste into a valuable energy resource. Kortos accompanies every project from the technical study up to the maintenance of the installation, always ensuring that the process is simple and reliable. The mission is to respond to the needs of bio-waste producers during their energy transition. With solutions that are both innovative and tailored, Kortos supports a smooth transition to methanization and biogas valorization. In essence, Kortos transforms manure and organic wastes into renewable resources, effectively creating green energy. It is all about making waste work for producers in a sustainable and circular manner… truly a forward-thinking approach.
Main Benefit of the Project
Key figures and facts that underline the benefits include:
- The Production of Green Energy: Energy is produced from organic waste, offering a local, sustainable, and circular solution for the energy transition.
- Rentability: Gas, electricity, and heat are generated, which can be produced, consumed, and even sold!
- Organic Valorization of Effluents: The process of methanization yields a digestate that works as an excellent fertilizer for crops.
- Your Turnkey Project: Feasibility, viability, and profitability are carefully studied, ensuring a comprehensive project assessment.
- Installation & Maintenance: A technology tailored to each project is presented for optimal profitability, along with an automated process and a maintenance service guaranteeing operational conditions for a minimum of 5 years.
Innovative Methanization Technologies
The project features a range of methanization solutions that empower waste producers to become active players in renewable energy production. Among these solutions are Pyramigaz, Silogaz, and Valorie. Pyramigaz utilizes a continuous liquid pathway with a flexible diamond-point pocket design. This innovative method prevents any sedimentation inside the digester. Its PVC structure is highly resistant to chemical attacks from sulfur when compared to concrete and offers much more gas-tight performance. Silogaz presents a discontinuous solid pathway, recognized as the simplest and most reliable method to methanize manures. The static digestion takes place in corridors flooded with juice, and the recirculation process brings methanogenic bacteria as close as possible to the effluents without involving wear parts. Then there is Valorie—a solution that adapts seamlessly to projects involving water-miscible waste. From very small agricultural operations to catering communities and professionals, every producer with fermentable organic material can take control of energy production through sustainable biomethane production from their waste… a true testimony to innovative thinking.
Tailored Installation and Maintenance Support
The project is not just about installing technology; it is also about ensuring long-term success. Kortos studies every project meticulously to ensure that all criteria are met for feasibility, viability, and profitability. Installation is carried out with technologies that not only promise optimal profitability but also offer a simple and automated process that increases comfort and ease-of-use. Moreover, a tailored maintenance service is provided with a dedicated contract to keep operational conditions stable for a minimum of 5 years. This commitment to support ensures that every bio-waste project functions smoothly, safeguarding both energy production and organic waste valorization.
Energy Transition and Sustainable Practices
At its core, the initiative is focused on the sustainable production of green energy. It offers a local solution that minimizes environmental impact while maximizing energy output. The technology used—comprising both liquid and solid methanization methods—signifies a blend of deeptech innovation and practical application. This approach not only promises energy independence but also contributes actively to the circular economy. Producers find themselves empowered by a system that takes organic waste, a potential liability, and converts it into a valuable, renewable resource. It is a realization of sustainable practices in a form that works on the ground, ensuring a dynamic contribution to the energy transition.
Advanced Technologies for Custom Solutions
The solutions offered by Kortos are based on patented and innovative technologies finely tuned to the type and quantity of resources available. Whether it is raw manure or other forms of organic waste, the systems in place are capable of adapting to various operational sizes—from small farms to bustling communities and professional kitchens. This allows any producer of fermentable organic material to step into the role of an energy producer, making the most of available resources. Embracing a mix of scientific innovation and practical expertise, the project stands as a leader in the sustainable production of biomethane, representing a significant step forward in energy valorization.
