About Kunststoff- und Umwelttechnik GmbH
Kunststoff- und Umwelttechnik GmbH (KUG), based in Forst/Lausitz, is active in engineering for plant construction. Its core business is synthesis gas plants for the thermal utilization of biomass and waste. The plant produces a high-calorific, natural-gas-like product gas as well as coke, which can be used for power generation in gas engines or turbines, for burner systems for process heat and steam generation, and as a substitute for natural gas. The plants are optimized for utilization throughputs of 25 to 100 kt/a and target small and medium-sized as well as municipal companies in the waste management and energy sectors. In addition to the synthesis gas plants, KUG offers chemical gas processes, a pilot plant, and innovation projects. The plant is flexible with respect to a broad spectrum of feedstocks and insensitive to fluctuations in calorific value, moisture, and grain size, so that the effort required for upstream material preparation remains low.

Feedstocks and processes
Biomass
As a renewable feedstock for the production of energy carriers and for the substitution of fossil energy carriers.
Waste
Thermal utilization of waste that cannot be recovered as material, as a task of the waste management industry.
Synthesis gas process
Thermal utilization with the generation of a high-calorific, low-contaminant product gas and coke.
