Biomass heating for Dryer in the bricks and tiles production
2WWW.SPIRE2030.EU
today the world's largest producer of bricks and No. 1 on the clay roof tiles market in Europe, with 215 plants in 30 countries
EUR 2,355.5 mio revenues and 13,060 employees in 2012
Our project idea applies for:
SPIRE 2 – 2014: Adaptable industrial processes allowing the use of renewables as flexible feedstock for chemical and energy applications

up to 30% reduction of CO2
lower specific energy consumption [kWh/to fired product]
fossil fuel only used for high temperature processes, where substitution is very difficult
bolt on technology – exiting plants remain widely unchangedadaptable for all bricks & tiles plants
key technology for further use of low temperature energy sources
e.g. solar heating, industrial waste heat, district heating, etc.
strengthen local economy
building with a clear conscience
Substitution of fossil fuel with biomass
