SyngaSmart is a renewable energy technology, designed and manufactured by RESET for the production of carbon-negative heat and power through an original biomass gasification system.
It consists of a range of integrated and automated plants – from 50 to 200 kWe – available in containerized or forklift-ready configuration.
The modular and scalable design allows quick installation both indoors and outdoors, without requiring complex civil works. Furthermore, the plants are equipped with sensors and IoT electronic devices enabling complete remote management and monitoring.
SyngaSmart technology is based on the integration of multiple processes coordinated by a sophisticated automation logic.

SyngaSmart can process up to about 2.000 tons / year of solid biomass directly where it is produced, thus reducing the costs and environmental impacts associated with transport and disposal. For larger quantities or energy needs , simply add one or more modules.
Unlike other non-programmable technologies, SyngaSmart allows 24h energy generation with constant supply of biomass, reducing human intervention and supervision to the minimum. Furthermore, the gasification process enables the highest energy recovery from biomass without the typical emission impacts associated with combustion plants, particularly ashes and dust.
While displacing fossil fuels usage and the related emissions of new Carbon, SyngaSmart also sequesters biomass Carbon in a solid and stable form, the Biochar, that beyond representing a powerful soil conditioner, allows the creation of artificial carbon sinks.
PowerSkid is the skid-mounted, forklift ready version of SyngaSmart cogeneration plants.
Available from 50 to 200 kWe in combined heat and power configuration, or as PowerSkid HEAT (150 kWth), it is a compact system including all the necessary equipment: feedstock hopper, up to 4 gasification units, gas cleaning and cooling, automatic biochar extraction, single or double genset with thermal recovery, electrical panel and management software.

The introduction of an innovative technology into existing processes requires a careful preliminary assessment, both technical and financial, as well as the certainty of carrying it out with a solid and structured partner capable of supporting you over time.
ReCare is RESET’s service program designed to simplify and support your innovation process, through a team of dedicated professionals and technicians: from the feasibility study to staff training for plant operation, after-sales services and spare parts supply.
GreenChar is the name of the biochar produced with SyngaSmart technology and is characterized by high porosity, high surface area and carbon concentration (about 70%). In addition to being a promising tool for regenerative agriculture, biochar is also a concentrate of Carbon from atmospheric CO2: producing and using biochar in fact allows the creation of artificial “carbon sinks” with results equivalent to planting trees in terms of Carbon storage, but with an important difference: the Carbon contained in the biochar is stable and does not react with oxygen, therefore it does not decompose.
In other words, once incorporated into the soil, the biochar allows to permanently remove the equivalent CO2 from the atmospheric cycle.
