Zero-X VOLT System
X-150 Configuration

ZERO-X-VOLT

Waste Is Power

Generate clean electricity from waste. The X-150 VOLT configuration converts syngas through a generator set to produce electricity and heat — eliminating waste disposal costs and energy bills simultaneously.

The most versatile X-150 configuration. Whether you need to power remote operations, replace diesel generators, achieve energy independence, or sell electricity back to the grid — the X-150 VOLT delivers. Designed and certified in Germany by MFC.

Combined Heat & Power

The CHP Advantage: Double the Value

The X-150 VOLT operates as a Combined Heat and Power (CHP) system. The generator set produces electricity while simultaneously recovering exhaust heat — achieving total system efficiencies of up to 86%.

This means you get two energy outputs from one waste stream: electricity for your operations and heat for your processes. No energy is wasted.

How It Works

From Waste to Power

Stage 1

Pre-Processing

Mixed waste is prepared for gasification through a three-step conditioning process.

Drier
Moisture reduction to optimal gasification level
Shredder
Size reduction for uniform feed material
Pelletizer
Compaction into consistent pellet form
Stage 2

Gasification

The X-150 gasifier converts pelletized waste into high-quality syngas.

Who Benefits from VOLT?

Hospitals

Hospitals require uninterruptible power for life-critical equipment. VOLT provides reliable on-site power generation while eliminating medical waste disposal costs.

Critical power + medical waste

Municipalities

Cities can power public buildings, street lighting, and municipal services using local waste as fuel — achieving energy independence and waste management simultaneously.

Energy independence + waste management

Manufacturing Industries

Industrial facilities with high electricity demands and waste streams can achieve significant energy cost reductions while eliminating disposal fees.

Industrial power + waste valorization

Mining Operations

Remote mining sites dependent on expensive diesel generators can replace fossil fuel power with waste-to-energy. The MINEBASE application is specifically designed for Africa and remote operations.

Diesel replacement + remote power

Agricultural Producers

Farms with agricultural residues can power irrigation systems, processing equipment, and cold storage using their own waste biomass as fuel.

Farm power + biomass waste

Refugee Camps & Remote Communities

Off-grid communities can achieve complete energy independence by processing local waste into electricity. No grid connection required — the X-150 VOLT is fully self-contained.
