SINCE 1984
BIOTEC was established in Belgium in 1984 with the aim of developing appropriate conceptual, technological and methodological tools for tropical regions. The key objectives are to treat wastewater (agricultural, agro-industrial and urban) and manage solid organic waste. By doing so we add value to the by-products and use them as industrial, energy and agricultural inputs.
Our Vision (2050): Sustainable development of Humanity, fed through organic agriculture and powered with renewable energy
The sound management of the organic matter (carbon and nutrients) to generate renewable energy and to increase the fertility of soils.
BIOTEC has offices in several countries and a team of 6 nationalities. who speak 10 languages.

Research, development and innovation has always been the strength of our evolution. We optimise and constantly renew our products and look for new solutions to the challenges presented to us.
Our department responds to external and internal requests using a diverse range of media, such as laboratory tests, industrial testing, collaboration with equipment suppliers, literature searches and feedback from our plants in operation.
The department has well-equipped research laboratory to carry out experiments in BMP (Bio methane Potential). These facilities also allow to assess the toxicity of a given compound, in addition of being able to assess the influence of particle size, temperature and other parameters.
Experiments to simulate continuos digesters for get real data applicable to the organic loads, yields, gas quality, nutrient deficiencies, etc.
BIOTEC has been for 30 years a pioneer in its sector.
As a result of a R&D with its technological partner from India, and subsequently to a similar development with cane vinasse, BIOTEC conceived POME bio-drying units (palm effluent), a combination of biodigesters, evaporators (MSE) and dryers (spray), to transform palm effluents into a bio-fertilizer powder with 50% organic matter and 30% of macro-nutrients.
