To Whom It May Concern

The world is changing fast, and the changes are visible everywhere: in the financial world, in our climate and in the way we produce and use energy. It is an illusion to think that the world will be static and predictable in the foreseeable future. On the contrary, it is obvious that the world’s fossil energy resources like oil and natural gas will gradually run out in the next decennia. Oil and gas reserves that took hundreds of millions of years to be built up are being used by mankind in less than 300 years.

BTG-BTL appreciates these changes, and helps to develop the right answers to it. It is adamant that mankind should find a more sustainable way of living. There will not be a single miracle solution addressing all problems. Rather several solutions will have to be developed in parallel in the years to come. Solutions that include solar energy, wind energy, hydropower, tidal power, energy from biomass, etc.

BTG-BTL is active in the biomass energy sector, and has developed technology to mimic nature. Where the Earth formed oil reserves in millions of years, BTG-BTL is doing it in just 2 seconds. For this we use pyrolysis technology, which produces a dark-blown liquid, best known as pyrolysis oil. We’ve spent the last 15 years developing and optimising pyrolysis technology, as it is difficult to imitate mother earth you may understand.

Our pyrolysis technology is now mature. We can now multiply the concept and deliver actual pyrolysis plants to our customers. The pyrolysis oil can be used in boilers to produce heat and electricity at the moment of our customer’s choice. There is absolutely no need for the pyrolysis oil to be consumed at the time and place where it is produced. Production and use can be decoupled, and pyrolysis oil can easily be stored for a couple of years.

I am happy to see that a lot of companies are interested in partnering with us to work on the upgrading of the pyrolysis oil quality and to use pyrolysis oil as feedstock for sustainable petrol or diesel. The future is very promising and challenging for us and for our partners alike.

I am looking forward to being in contact with you to see where we can fill in your needs to make your process more sustainable by using pyrolysis oil.

History of BTG BioLiquids BV

In 2007, after delivering a pyrolysis plant to a customer in Malaysia and two test facilities, BTG founded BTG BioLiquids B.V. (trade name BTG-BTL) in respons to the large amounts of requests they were getting from the market concerning their pyrolysis technology. BTG-BTL is dedicated to the worldwide commercial implementation of the fast pyrolysis technology developed by BTG.

Mission & Vision

"BTG-BTL wants to contribute to a more sustainable society by providing a renewable alternative to fossil fuels. This will be done through the delivery and deployment of fast pyrolysis technology for converting green biomass and organic residues into pyrolysis oil in an environmentally, socially and economically sustainable manner".
Fossil oil has been formed from biomass by nature in millions of years. Pyrolysis oil can be produced by mankind in only seconds. Although economic oil reserves have been increasing over the last decades, the (economic) need for a renewable oil, not competing with food or with land for food, is increasing steadily. Pyrolysis liquids can be stored, traded, transported and applied universally, just like mineral oil. Pyrolysis allows the decoupling of biofuel production and its actual use.

BTG-BTL services

The core business of BTG-BTL is the delivery and deployment of our patented fast pyrolysis technology. To ensure the success of these projects BTG-BTL offers several complementary services. In addition to the services listed below we also handle requests for other services, provided they fall within the framework of our mission and vision.

Currently BTG-BTL is expanding its expertise in these fields in theEmpryo project  These first-hand experiences enable us to place ourselves in the position of our customers and provide them with the best services in the field of pyrolysis project development.

BTG services

The services BTG-BTL offers are complemented by those from its parent company BTG. Since its establishment in 1979, BTG has completed over 1,400 assignments. Field experience was gained in more than 80 countries.
