Torftech - advancing technologies for advancing industries

10-Jan-2020 This photograph shows a blade ring for a 200mm diameter TORBED processor.  Designed by Torftech and 3D printed in high temperature resin at the University of Newcastle, it is shown whilst curing.
 


Part of ongoing work on carbon capture being carried out by the University, this processor will take the exhaust gas from a small scale biomass boiler and allow it to flow through potential carbon capture reagents to allow kinetic and breakthrough testing of the material and process.  The use of 3D printing techniques has made what would otherwise have been a complex and costly fabrication, feasible and cost effective.  This ongoing collaboration previously saw production of the smallest working TORBED processor at 50mm internal diameter.
