Our roots
Our history dates back to the original wood gasifiers, through gas production using fossil fuels, to AHT CleanTec solutions for green, CO2-free energy.
As early as the 1950s to 1960s, gas production with waste biomass such as rice husks, coconut, groundnuts, or cocoa shells was already in operation.
However, due to the cheap prices of oil and natural gas, the existing gas production technology was gradually displaced from the market from the mid-1960s onwards.
Due to current energy and climate policy frameworks and the resulting goal of decarbonizing energy production, the production of synthesis gas from biomass is experiencing a real comeback.
Since we never lost sight of the conversion of biogenic residues into energy and continuously developed our technology, we can now make a valuable contribution to the energy transition with our AHT CleanTec solutions.
In particular, our long-standing commitment to the Japanese market, which is considered a global pioneer in this area, has enabled us to rely on proven plant components throughout the entire process chain from material preparation to gas cleaning.
Let’s implement the energy transition together!
