Co-operation profile details from Enterprise Europe SEIMED 12 HU 50S0 3NYX - Procesamiento de ceniza de madera y uso como antideslizante

en vas pblicas y biofertilizante en cultura ecolgica Technology collaboration OFFER

Abstract
Una pyme hngara ha desarrollado una tecnologa de procesamiento de ceniza de madera que se usa como antideslizante y biofertilizante. Se trata de un producto respetuoso con el medioambiente que, a diferencia de la sal, evita la corrosin en vas pblicas durante el invierno. La tecnologa est indicada para plantas de biomasa, empresas dedicadas al mantenimiento de vas pblicas, actividades agrcolas y horticultura. Para evitar que las cenizas sean esparcidas por el viento, deben procesarse primero. El proceso consiste en varios pasos: mezcla de la ceniza con otros productos naturales (principalmente lquidos), secado, granulado y sellado hermtico en bolsas de plstico para evitar que las cenizas se mezclen con agua y alcalinicen. La empresa busca socios interesados en continuar con el desarrollo o participar en el desarrollo de una nueva versin.

Description
The Hungarian company is carrying out developments in connection with biogas-production, utilization and bio-refinement for the sake of the sustainable development. It is also member of a similar cluster. The placement of the generated ash means a problem both in case of biomass power stations and in case of furnace with wood fuel in family houses. The offered technology provides two alternatives for solving this problem: Application as non-skidding Utilization as bio-fertilizer If the wood-ash was directly put on the slippery roads in winter, then it would go with the wind. It wouldnt be able to prove its non-skidding effect. Therefore, the wood-ash has to be processed first. The process involves the following steps: o mixing with other natural materials (mainly with liquids) o drying o granulating or pelleting o wrapping hermetically into plastic bags, so the wood-ash cannot get water, because if it mingles with water, the wood-ash alkalifies and then its storage becomes difficult. After this, the bags can be taken to the streets to make the roads non-slippery by dispending the dry wood-ash mixture. The wind wont blow this mixture. If the weather becomes milder, it would also help to move ice. When the snow starts to melt, the wood-ash mixture can flow directly into the living water without cleansing, because it does not pollute it. It is desired to locate the processing machines near the biomass power station, because the biggest amount is generated there. The remaining wood-ash mixture can be dispended onto the land, into the gardens as alimentary substances improving the soil. Wood-ash as granular biomass has been used for soil-improvement for centuries, because it is rich in microelements (potassium, phosphor, magnesium, calcium carbonate). It is good for deciduous trees, for bushes, for fruit trees, for root vegetables, for tomato, for bulbous and for herbaceous flowers, etc. It is also good as repellent, for example it is very effective against colorado beetle, tree-lice and scale-insects. If the main aim of using wood-ash is to improve the quality of the soil, then the quality of the mixture can be further improved by adding new natural materials to it. Tasks to be solved: establishing pilot-work and developing the technology further. Innovative Aspects: Innovation of the company's technology: it manages the placement and the recycling of the generated waste at the same time. Advantages of the offered technology: environmentally-friendly the manufacturing machine and the wood-ash processed by it are possible products to be sold together or separately.

Target partner expertise sought:

- Type of partner sought: industrial company or service providing company. - Specific area of activity of the partner: engineering, packaging technique, road-maintenance, biological soil protection. - Task to be performed by the partner sought: spreading the technology, teaching of its use participation in the common further development of the technology, or participation in the development of a newer version of it adapting the technology to the biological protection of the given plant establishing a pilot-works for the processing of the wood-ash manufacturing of the machines, equipment (gatherer, batcher, metering, agitator, desiccator, sacker, etc.) necessary for the pilot-works supplying the materials of the mixing recipe taken from the one offering the technology feedback of the pilot-work experience. It is optional whether the partner invests also money into the company.
