Combloc boiler

Thermax enables a herbal manufacturer to convert waste to low-cost energy

Project overview

A herbal products manufacturer in Central Java aimed to convert process waste into a useful energy source and reduce waste disposal.

Thermax installed biomass-fired boilers capable of utilising herbal waste as fuel, replacing conventional practices of incineration. The solution enabled cost-effective steam generation while reducing waste and lowering the company’s carbon footprint.
