A revolution in energy from waste
Producing sustainable energy products while reducing landfill thanks to patented MIHG technology
In the face of climate change and global warming, the increasing population contributes significantly to an ever-growing amount of residual waste. Wildfire Energy’s vision is to eliminate landfill by turning waste into renewable energy and hydrogen with its revolutionary MIHG solution. A simple process that converts waste into electricity, renewable syngas, and hydrogen, with negative net carbon emissions. Endress+Hauser assists with reliable measurement instruments and comprehensive support.
Results
-
A proven path toward the reduction of landfill and emission-free syngas and hydrogen production

Challenges
Wildfire's MIHG process requires a range of different service conditions: from low pressure ranges in the MIHG reactor to high pressure as well as high temperature requirements.
Suitability of equipment: choosing instruments that allow for a high level of accuracy and precision as well as flexibility for future expansion and scalability while providing technical compatibility with the process.
Realization
Accurate measurement and continuous monitoring of critical process variables are essential factors for optimum process operation and efficiency. In the development of the pilot plant, Wildfire Energy relied on Endress+Hauser’s expertise to monitor the performance of the MIHG reactor especially at low pressure. While the Endress+Hauser devices demonstrate highest accuracy, the local support was highly appreciated and played a crucial role in the successful commissioning.
