We as DBI-Virtuhcon GmbH develop tailored solutions meeting your requirements, in particular for difficult tasks. We provide independent consulting services and prepare scientific, technological and economic expert reports. We analyze, model and balance your process or plant and identify critical points or perform trouble shooting.
DBI-Virtuhcon develops new patentable process solutions, equipment components or technologies based on results obtained from lab experiments or pilot-scale test runs and by applying scientifically sound theoretic tools.
The main services of DBI-Virtuhcon GmbH includes:
- Determination and comprehensive evaluation of process chains for energetic and non-energetic us of carbonaceous energy raw materials (in particular for thermos-chemical conversion at medium and high temperature)
- Technology evaluation for single processes and process chains, e. g. pyrolysis, gasification, combustion, drying and briquetting etc.
- Consulting for companies being in different project stages of planning and constructing plants for utilization of energy raw materials, e. g. support by independent review of quotations, provision of contacts between operating and OEM companies etc.
- DIN-compliant analyses and characterization of energy raw materials, e. g. determination of caloric values, proximate, ultimate and sulfur analysis, trace element analysis, BET surface area determination etc.
- Characterization of mineral matter und its behavior under reductive and oxidative gas atmosphere, e. g. ash melting behavior, fouling phenomena, slag viscosity, mineral matter phase analysis under high pressure and temperature etc.
- Evaluation of the pyrolysis and gasification behavior of energy raw materials and comprehensive fuel analytical and chemical characterization of intermediate and main products
