At Carbon Focus Engineering (CFE), we bring together decades of expertise to design, install, and commission low-carbon energy and waste management systems for businesses and organisations across the UK. 

 

Specialising in bioenergy projects, we work with a variety of fuels - from traditional wood chips and pellets to more unconventional options like straw, miscanthus, waste wood, waste residues, and even poultry manure.

Our portfolio includes innovative technologies such as pyrolysis, gasification, biomass hot water and steam heating and heat recovery systems. We also offer turnkey mechanical and electrical solutions, district heating, project management, service and maintenance, and compliance services.

We are the UK Partner and Agents for Pyreg GmbH and are able to offer a tried and tested pyrolysis solution for a variety of feedstocks including all types of crop residue, agro-forestry waste and manure. Pyreg have a proven track record of providing machinery which produces a high quality Biochar attaching an impressive income stream through CORC's (Cardon Dioxide removal certificates). During the pyrolysis process waste heat is produced which can be used for heating or transformed into power through CHP.

We are also working with a Gasification manufacturer to bring smaller scale plants for the processing of agricultural waste streams such as poultry manure. Again providing heat/power to the farm whilst dealing with poultry litter from each crop. With the High Court ruling stating that poultry manure is now classified as industrial waste, a viable mechanism for dealing with waste whilst providing an added value is essential. 

Carbon Focus Engineering Ltd is also proud to be a UK dealer for MULTIHEAT International, providing cutting edge Heat recovery systems. Saving energy and optimising the climate inside a poultry house are top priorities for every poultry farmer. Heat recovery results in lower site CO2 & Ammonia emissions. Temperature and ventilation are crucial for maintaining ideal conditions for poultry to perform. MULTIHEAT heat recovery systems take polluted, CO2-rich air from the poultry house and replaces it with fresh, O2-rich air. The built-in exchanger block transfers heat from the outgoing air to warm the fresh incoming air, substantially improving the climate inside the poultry house.

In 2015, the UK pledged to be Net Zero by 2050, with the NFU striving for the more ambitious target of 2040. Net Zero is achieved when the amount of greenhouse gases (GHG) emitted is balanced with those removed from the atmosphere. This helps to combat climate change and reduce global warming.

Opportunities are increasing for farmers and land managers to earn revenues from storing carbon in soils or vegetation, or by reducing baseline GHG emissions from crop and livestock production.

Regenerative farming looks to optimise the use of the ecological system and environment, in order to benefit from the natural ecosystem services that they provide.

Lots of initiatives are measuring and reporting the carbon or greenhouse footprint of products or activities, including crops, livestock and food.

Chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese and ducks are the main categories of poultry kept for eggs, meat and breeding. 

An estimated 3.3 million tonnes of food may be lost and wasted on farms in the UK each year.
