Torftech sold its first TORBED processor for catalyst applications in 1997. Since then, the combination of strong process control and the ability to handle fine, attrition-sensitive powders has made the technology a natural fit for
Industrial catalyst processing stands as a critical pillar of modern manufacturing, silently powering the efficiency and sustainability of diverse sectors from petrochemicals and pharmaceuticals to environmental remediation and advanced materials. At its core, this sophisticated discipline involves the design, application, and regeneration of catalysts to ...
TORBED isn’t just an advanced reactor—it’s a technology platform engineered to close resource loops, maximize value from waste, and support sustainable, low-carbon industrial systems across multiple sectors. Key Circular Economy Applications 1. Valorising Paper Sludge into Cement-Grade Lime A demonstration plant in France uses TORBED ...
A few weeks ago, we wrote about the range of processes possible with a TORBED processor. Reviewing this prompted us to take stock of the current “menu”. High volume industrial Food Processing applications include: Popping of snacks Roasting of coffee Drying of potato granules Drying ...
The processes of installation and commissioning often provide interesting and unusual views of our equipment. On our Torbed news page this week is a picture of the inside of a burner chamber. Normally used for thermal mineral processing at in excess of 1000ºC, this is ...
We recently sold a small TORBED processor for an experimental application. We look forward to the results and perhaps another door opening. This sale took the number of TORBED processors sold for food applications to 98. We are also looking forward to achieving a first ...
We are pleased to announce that we have taken an order for a front-end engineering package for a Torrefaction plant fuelled by waste wood biomass. Torrefaction is a form of thermal biomass processing that involves drying and partial devolatilization of the biomass. It results in ...
Our TORBED and TORWAVE technology can enable all sorts of unique processes and generate exciting new products.
Our processors have capabilities in a range of gas-solid contacting processes from high temperature flash calcination to low temperature drying across a diverse range of industries. Often our processors offer an alternative to less resource-efficient conventional technologies. Find out about some of the processes for which our technology has been used and see if we could assist you.
