Waste transformed to value

From natural carbon waste to high-value chemical grade syngas.

Convert dairy waste and landfill methane into profitable, low carbon syngas using HYCO1’s breakthrough syngas technologies.

The HYCO1 Advantage

The role of biogas in low-carbon fuel production.

Biogas facilities, whether from dairy digesters or landfill gas wells, hold untapped value in their carbon-rich waste streams. But today’s biogas technologies often struggle with efficiency, feedstock variability, and delivering clean, consistent syngas. HYCO1 flips that challenge on its head, unlocking high purity, low CI syngas directly from biogas without costly upgrades.

The Clear Choice

Why HYCO1 for biogas producers:

  • Feedstock Flexibility: Accommodates variable methane & CO2 ratios from dairy and landfill operations.

  • High Conversion Efficiency: Uses our CUBE™ Technology to upgrade biogas into chemical-grade H2 and CO in a single reaction pass.

  • Carbon-Negative Opportunity: Turns biogenic methane & CO2 into valuable syngas while cutting carbon intensity.

  • Maximize Feedstock Value: Turn low-value biogas emissions into high-purity, low-CI syngas for premium downstream products.

Why it matters

From waste to wealth.

  1. Raw Biogas Intake: Capture methane-rich gas from landfills or anaerobic digesters. Remove moisture and particulates as needed.
  2. Catalyst Reforming: Feed the preprocessed gas into a steam methane reformer. HYCO1's CUBE™ Technology converts methane and CO2 into hydrogen and carbon monoxide with unmatched efficiency, even with feedstock fluctuations.
  3. Syngas Refinement & Use: The resultant syngas is ready for downstream use. Whether that’s bio-based fuels, hydrogen production, or industrial processes.

“Built to handle biogas variability. Designed to deliver syngas value.”

 

Enabling biogas-to-syngas production.

HYCO1 transforms biogas plants from low-output waste handlers into high-performance syngas producers. Whether you’re processing manure-based gas on a farm or methane-laden landfill streams, HYCO1’s technology captures value (and carbon) with precision.
