Bio-Process Design and Optimization
Backed by a decade of expertise in successfully delivering small and large-scale biofuel projects internationally, GPSR comes with significant expertise in bespoke bioprocess design and optimization solutions for a growing portfolio of feedstock such as Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), Source Separated Organics (SSO), Paddy Straw, Press Mud Cake, etc. GPSR provides the following range of services –
Waste Characterisation and Biogas Potential Assessment
We conduct end-to-end studies on project viability that include detailed compositions of waste types along with the biogas output potential from any given input.
Pre-Treatment Technologies
Today, we provide the industry’s most innovative and trusted technologies for pre-treatment systems which form one of the most critical components of a typical bio-process involved in generating biofuel.
Digestion Technologies
Our core expertise lies in identifying or developing biofuel technologies that facilitate effective and efficient digestion of organic biomass in order to produce high yields of clean fuel.
Downstream Processing
Our expertise extends all the way from the upstream, to the downstream of a typical biofuel plant including output management such as gas upgradation, storage as well as distribution,
Bio-Health Management
Our biofuel systems leverage the power of AI and IoT, which drives remote monitoring of the health of the biofuel plant. This in turn ensures timely intervention and maximum uptime of the system.
Biofuel Project Engineering
GPS Renewables’ offers a comprehensive suite of engineering solutions for the efficient functioning of biofuel plants, other than the bioprocess directly. This covers design, engineering and technology solutions for the balance aspects of any biofuel bio-process including BoP, output process flows and valorisation of byproducts among the many. GPSR provides the following range of services –
Balance of Plant (BoP) Engineering selection
Across any given type of clean fuel infrastructure, we come with quality capabilities in designing and engineering the balance of plant (BoP) components, covering any range of possible variables.
Output Storage and Distribution selection
Our biofuel knowledge and expertise covers the length and breadth of a typical biofuel value chain extending from input selection till output gas upgradation, storage and customized distribution.
Feedstock Specific Technology Selection
With in-depth knowledge in and network from the clean fuels industry today, we are skilled at identifying the most optimum technology systems for a given set of input and output variables.
Byproduct Valorisation
We also innovate in identifying and developing unique downstream solutions for all the different types of byproducts output from a biofuel system covering slurry and compost apart from gas.
Biorefining Process Integration
We are well-versed in identifying, developing and providing relevant technologies that facilitate biorefining which in turn help output a range of bio-chemicals with a host of sustainable use case.
Intellectual Property (IP) Development
GPSR Aavishkaar is GPS Renewables’ Research & Development arm focussed on bioenergy innovation. GPSR invests a considerable amount of time, money and effort in its R&D initiatives to develop cutting-edge technologies and bioprocesses that facilitate efficient biofuel production and distribution. Led by a dedicated team of accomplished scientists, GPSR has established strategic partnerships with some of the most renowned agricultural and biological research institutions of India, while we parallelly hold 4 patents in the modular biogas space today. GPSR has tied up with –
GPSR x KK Nag
GPSR has established a joint BMP facility with KK Nag Pvt. Ltd. to evaluate the Bio-methanation Potential (BMP) of a variety of feedstock. The lab is being exclusively leveraged by GPSR to conduct BMP analysis for potential organic feedstock and to support the existing projects of GPSR by providing a substrate sample testing centre.
GPSR x Agharkar Research Institute (ARI), Pune
In collaboration with one of India’s premier institutions, ARI; GPSR is conducting breakthrough research with the objective of developing resource-efficient ‘Bio-based Pre-treatment Systems’ for BioCNG production. These systems are proposed to use anaerobic fungi for efficient breakdown of lignocellulosic biomass.
GPSR x Tamil Nadu Agricultural University (TNAU), Coimbatore
In partnership with TNAU, GPSR is driving research to identify hybrid crop varieties that consume much less water, energy and fertilizers but which provide higher biofuel yields. For instance, yield studies are being conducted to identify the potential of C4 and CAM plants as feedstock.
GPSR x Vasantdada Sugar Institute (VSI), Pune
In association with VSI, a leading sugar research institute; GPSR is driving research and development studies with the objective of developing resource-efficient biological pre-treatment systems to produce 2G ethanol in large-scale and cost-effective numbers.
Technology Partnerships
GPSR has also secured defining technology partnerships with some of the world’s leading, most recognized technology manufacturers in the field of biofuels and clean fuels; owing to which GPSR has exclusive sale rights for state-of-the-art bioenergy systems engineered and manufactured in India, Germany and Switzerland among other advanced countries. GPSR has partnerships with –
Snow Leopard Projects GmbH
As part of our partnership with leading German technology provider of agri-residue based biogas technologies – Snow Leopard Projects GmbH, we have the exclusive right to use SLP’s innovative biofuel systems in the Indian market.
HyGear
We have a strategic partnership with the leader in cost-effective and industrial scale supply of hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen – HyGear, for Green Hydrogen technologies and for building of balance of plant for mega-scale Green Hydrogen projects
LanzaTech Inc.
We also have a strategic partnership with LanzaTech for 2G Ethanol technologies and overall project integration & execution of balance of plant infrastructure for a Bamboo-based 2G Ethanol project based in Mizoram, India.
The Climate Software Lab (CSL)
The Climate Software Lab (CSL) is GPSR’s Climate Technology arm comprising of AI scientists and technology experts who leverage AI, ML and Information Technology to create software solutions for climate adaptation and climate transformation.
