XYLOWATT technology addresses two key markets with <strong>the</strong> NOTAR gasifier:<br />
(i) Biomass CHP market: is growing in industrialized & emerging regions.<br />
While this market was originally addressed only by combustion technologies,<br />
<strong>the</strong> recent development of gasification technologies allows better efficiencies<br />
in small scale projects.<br />
(ii) <strong>Renewable</strong> syngas <strong>for</strong> industry: <strong>Energy</strong>-intensive industries (metals, glass,<br />
bricks & tiles, etc.) with strong needs to diversify fuel resources and reduce<br />
energy costs & carbon emissions<br />

Company description<br />
Founded in 2001 as a spin off of <strong>the</strong> Catholic University of Louvain (Belgium),<br />
XYLOWATT is a leader in small scale biomass gasification technology. It<br />
designs, manufactures and operates small-scale biomass gasification power<br />
plants that efficiently convert biomass (natural and contaminated) into heat<br />
and electricity. Based on its expertise in biomass gasification technology,<br />
XYLOWATT offers cost-effective bio-energy systems <strong>for</strong> CHP application<br />
(from 500 kW to several MW power) and renewable syngas <strong>for</strong> industry<br />
(between 4 and 20 MW).<br />
