About

BIO2CHP (Bio-based Energy Technologies P.C.) is a technology-driven company dedicated to enabling decentralized energy production through the efficient conversion of low-quality biomass into clean syngas. Founded in 2017 as a spin-out of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, BIO2CHP builds on over 15 years of applied R&D in biomass gasification and gas cleaning technologies. Our mission is to accelerate the decarbonization of small- and medium-sized enterprises—particularly in the agri-food sector—by turning organic waste streams into valuable, clean energy. We aim to empower local industries to reduce their environmental impact, cut energy costs, and close the loop on their waste.

BIO2CHP’s core innovation lies in its modular, containerized gasification units designed for flexibility, efficiency, and ease of use. The technology integrates Bubbling Fluidized Bed Gasification (BFBG), optimized for heterogeneous feedstock such as grape pomace, olive kernels, or digestate, with low ash melting points with, High-Temperature Gas Cleaning, a proprietary system adapted from diesel particulate filters, enabling the removal of tars and particulates without cooling the gas.

The result is a fully integrated system which includes fuel pre-treatment, gas conditioning, energy conversion (CHP or burner), automation (PLC-controlled), and safety features in a plug-and-play format. This design allows operations with minimal infrastructure and remote monitoring, making it ideal for distributed, small-scale applications.

What Makes Us Unique

  • Feedstock Flexibility: Capable of processing a wide range of agricultural residues and waste biomass without extensive pre-treatment.

  • Compact & Scalable: All systems are packaged in standardized containers, easily scalable, and deployable in remote or off-grid environments.

  • Energy Circularity: Offers a sustainable solution that turns energy liabilities (waste) into energy assets (heat, electricity, syngas).

  • Proven Pilots: Demonstrated performance in winery, biogas plant, and lab environments with validated outputs and gas quality metrics.

Strategic Vision

BIO2CHP aims to position itself as a leading solution provider in modular biomass-to-energy systems, starting with the agri-food sector and expanding into broader waste-to-energy applications. We envision a network of decentralized units supporting the circular economy and contributing to climate goals through on-site renewable energy generation.
