What is thermal hydrolysis?

Thermal hydrolysis is a technology that uses heat and high pressure to break down organic materials, such as sewage sludge, biomass, or food waste, supporting anaerobic digestion and enabling more efficient disposal or further processing.

Press play and see how thermal hydrolysis looks in action!

Environmentally compliant, efficient, reliable. For now and forever.

With Cambi, you're not just buying a thermal hydrolysis solution; you're securing a partnership for the lifetime of your plant. We offer technology that is both mature and reliable, explained in terms that you and your clients will easily grasp.

Higher efficiency, lower operational costs.

Thermal hydrolysis optimizes the digestion process, reducing the volume of organic matter and water left after digestion while increasing biogas production. By boosting digester loading rates, thermal hydrolysis saves funds that would otherwise be spent on expanding current facilities.

A greener way to cost-efficiently manage waste.

More biogas, pathogen and bacteria-free biosolids, lower emissions from transport and processing - thermal hydrolysis not only reduces the environmental footprint of conventional waste processing but also produces Implementing our solution means taking pride in contributing to a greener, cleaner local environment.

Process Engineer, Hengelo WWTP

In the Netherlands, sludge disposal costs about €100 per tonne, so this reduction has made a big financial impact. We now save €1 million annually just on sludge disposal costs.

After starting the Cambi THP process, the sludge smell problem just vanished. The quality of the final sludge is much better, and we can now use it for land reclamation without any odour problems. Moreover, we now help other plants with their sludge processing, giving us more energy and extra income.

Employee, Birmingham - Minworth

Across the company, we currently generate around 34% of all of the energy we use as a business, and the thermal hydrolysis process will move us closer to our target of making that 50%.

Today IVAR produces approximately 3,400,000 m3 of biogas/year. This corresponds to the fuel consumption of 4,000 private cars with an annual mileage of 15,000 km.

Waterschap Vechtstromen: Centralising Sludge Treatment at Hengelo

Instead of renovating digestion facilities at multiple locations, Waterschap Vechtstromen centralised sludge treatment for about 20 of its wastewater treatment plants at its Hengelo facility using Cambi’s thermal hydrolysis process (THP).

Tarnowskie Wodociągi: Transforming Sludge Management

Tarnowskie Wodociągi (Tarnów Waterworks), responsible for treating wastewater in the Tarnów area of Poland, struggled with the disposal of 26,000 tonnes of sewage sludge annually. The plant collects wastewater primarily from the Tarnów area, with about 10% of its sewage being industrial.
