Trovant Technology, founded in Valladolid, Spain, in 2018 by Jose Manuel Estrada Perez and Alexandre Colzi, is a company focused on the development of environmental biotechnology.
The founders have a background in the environmental sector, with Estrada Perez having previously worked as a senior researcher for the URBIOFIN H2020 Demo Project. This experience in environmental research and development has been pivotal in the creation of Trovant's core technology.
The company operates in the renewable energy market, specifically targeting small and medium-scale biogas producers. Its business model is centered around the development and scaling of its proprietary technology, NIDUP, which facilitates the conversion of biogas into biomethane. This process allows businesses to monetize organic waste by transforming it into a source of renewable energy.
Trovant's NIDUP technology is a biological process for upgrading biogas. A key feature of this technology is its ability to operate without the need for pre-treatment or drying of the biogas, regardless of its initial quality. The process is characterized by minimal methane slip and yields high-purity CO2 as a byproduct. This makes the production of biomethane economically viable for smaller-scale operations that may not have the resources for more complex and capital-intensive upgrading technologies.
