Pyrolysis for biomass conversion
Transform diverse waste materials into valuable bio-commodities and energy through advanced thermochemical processes, ensuring efficient resource utilization and environmental sustainability.

Transforms Biomass and Waste into Valuable Outputs
The Spirajoule® from ETIA SAS is a specialized industrial pyrolyzer designed for efficient waste and biomass conversion. Utilizing a robust spiral heating element, it ensures uniform thermal treatment in pyrolysis and torrefaction processes. Ideal for waste management and renewable energy sectors, it converts a wide range of materials, including garden waste, sludge, tires, and plastics, into syngas, biochar, and other valuable by-products. With continuous modular operations, the Spirajoule® system supports integration into existing production lines and allows for flexible processing configurations. Operating between 400°C and 800°C, it offers energy efficiency through optimized motor control, significantly reducing operating costs. The system’s stainless steel construction provides excellent durability and corrosion resistance, accommodating harsh industrial environments. Automated controls and optional remote monitoring enhance operational oversight and facilitate maintenance, ensuring reliable performance and scalability to meet diverse processing needs.
