A simple premise

Graveson Energy Management Ltd have developed a unique advanced thermal conversion system that recovers energy from a wide selection of materials considered waste in our modern society.

The GEM Gas Conversion technology presents an elegant solution for some of the major environmental challenges facing the world today. Atmospheric pollution, waste management, sustainable energy and resource use are issues embraced globally as significant problems associated with social and industrial development of the modern world. Topics such as climate change, non renewable fossil fuel use, landfill, poor resource management and sustainability need addressing today to protect tomorrow.

GEM’s advanced thermal conversion process can be described as ‘flash pyrolysis’. It is the chemical decomposition of feedstock by intensive heat in the absence of oxygen atmosphere also known as “destructive distillation” or “cracking”. This well established process has been utilised commercially for many years, it is widely used in the petro-chemical industry.

GEM recognised the superior efficiency of this thermal process and have applied its principles to the waste management and renewable energy markets. The advantages of this process are:-

• Identifies wasted resources as valuable fuel.
• Utilises that fuel by efficiently converting it into synthetic gas.
• Synthetic gas produced is a replacement for natural gas, reducing reliance on fossil fuel energy sources.
• Generates renewable electricity and heat from that synthetic gas.
• Enables landfill diversion without discouraging recycling, promoting the waste hierarchy.
• Improves the environmental impact compared with traditional forms of waste disposal and power generation.
• Adheres to proximity principal with small scale modular design hence decrease traffic movements.
