Torrefaction

Alfa Therm Limited is a leading torrefaction technology provider, supplier, and exporter, delivering advanced solutions that convert waste into high-quality renewable fuel.

In light of the Government of India’s latest Comprehensive Policy for Co-firing of Biomass Pellets and Torrefied MSW Charcoal in Coal-based Thermal Power Plants (2025-26), our torrefaction technology has become an essential enabler for industries aiming to meet the new national co-firing mandates.

India's Most Trusted MSW to Green Energy Technology

Alfa Therm Limited is at the forefront of waste-to-energy innovation. Our Continuous Torrefaction System (300 TPD) is engineered for efficiency, reliability, and long-term sustainability.

With the government now mandating thermal power plants to co-fire biomass pellets and torrefied MSW-based charcoal, our torrefaction technology helps industries fully comply with the new co-firing requirements, enabling:

  • Processing of municipal solid waste, RDF, biomass, and other combustible fractions
  • Production of high-calorific-value torrefied fuel suitable for co-firing
  • Eco-friendly waste reduction with measurable carbon-offset benefits.

This technology transforms mixed waste into a policy-compliant, industry-ready fuel, delivering both clean energy and environmentally responsible waste management.
