The main problem, however, is limited availability due to logistical limitations. FirmTec wants to play an important role in the production of food and energy in the places where it's needed. This can be achieved with the Sustainer, a self-supporting containerized system.
The Sustainer can be installed at any location in the world and converts seeds and nuts into:
FirmTec's Sustainer removes the barriers that that stand in the way of initiatives for producing bio fuels. Unfortunately many of these initiatives are never realised, particularly in Africa. The reasons for this include:
FirmTec's Sustainer is a small-scale, immediately operable system that uses the nuts and seeds available locally. The Sustainer generates turnover immediately, creates goodwill among the local population and minimises the risks relating to technology, logistics and staffing. The Sustainer therefore clears the way for the construction of larger plantations; for example, through intercropping or collaboration with out-growers. If sufficient raw materials are available, the Sustainer has a very favourable payback period of two to three years.
