Biostoom Beringen product offering
Product offeringCore offering
Biostoom Beringen operates a waste-to-energy facility that combusts approximately 200,000 tons per year of non-hazardous, non-recyclable waste (household, business, and non-risk hospital waste) at 1,000°C, producing 105 tons/hour of steam. Steam is primarily delivered via pipeline to neighboring industrial companies in the Ravenshout energy hub, with surplus converted into electricity capable of powering more than 50,000 households. The facility also accepts and treats residual waste streams under Vlarem III environmental permits and sells ash residues to specialized recyclers.
Product overview
Biostoom Beringen is a single-purpose bio-steam power plant facility operated by Bionerga N.V. that converts non-hazardous, non-recyclable waste into steam energy through high-temperature combustion (2 hours at 1000°C). The facility operates as the central engine of an energy hub, with the primary output (105 tons steam/hour) supplied to neighboring businesses rather than retail electricity consumers. Waste ash residues are processed by specialized recyclers for ferro, non-ferro, and mineral recovery.
