Innovative burner technology for fossil-free energy

Nexopel & PetroBio

Nexopel & PetroBio – your trusted partner in the green energy transition

We combine our extensive industrial experience with more than 60 years of technological know-how from a Swedish leader in innovative combustion systems. Our shared goal is to deliver modern, safe and flexible solutions that make a real move away from fossil fuels possible.

Solutions designed to burn biomass, biogas, wood dust, bio-oils and industrial waste, with outputs of up to 50 MW (and higher with multi-burner configurations).

Full support in Poland

At Nexopel we provide complete technical consulting and efficient project delivery. Together with PetroBio we retrofit existing installations and design and build turnkey solutions.

Together we are building a sustainable future for industry – combining reliability with care for the environment.

Modern industry faces the challenge of reducing emissions while making more efficient use of resources. Solutions that combine economic growth with environmental responsibility are becoming increasingly important. Using renewable energy sources, improving energy efficiency and gradually moving away from fossil fuels – towards, for example, wood dust with certified biomass origin – are the key directions for modern industry.

Moving away from coal is our response to the challenges of the future. We support industry in its transition to clean, renewable energy, proving that technological progress and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand.

One system – many fuel options

  • Biomass & waste
  • Heating oil
  • Bio-oils
  • Gas BIO/NG/LPG
  • Hybrids

Secure your heat production

Flexible solutions turn existing resources into adaptable, efficient energy systems that are ready for the challenges ahead.

Solid fuels

Since the 1980s PetroBio has been developing and supplying high-efficiency burner systems for solid fuels. Our solutions enable sustainable energy through efficient combustion of:

  • Pellet- and wood-based fuels
  • Agricultural fuels
  • Powder/dust waste from industrial production

This lets industry turn residues and renewable resources into reliable, cost-effective energy.

Liquid fuels

PetroBio's journey began in the 1960s and 70s with liquid-fuel combustion for Swedish district heating networks. Today we offer advanced solutions for:

  • Bio-oils and tar oil
  • Solvents
  • Liquid industrial waste streams
  • Heavy and light fuel oils

Thanks to flexible burner technology, our customers can produce sustainable energy regardless of the fuel source – combining efficiency, reliability and a lower environmental impact.

Gaseous fuels

Since its founding PetroBio has worked with gaseous fuels, offering innovative burner systems for efficient, environmentally friendly and sustainable energy production. Our solutions are optimised for:

  • Biogas
  • Gas streams
  • LPG and natural gas
  • Syngas

A three-level service support model

Nexopel / PetroBio service path

  1. Level 1

    Self-diagnosis and troubleshooting by trained plant staff, with remote support from PetroBio engineers.

  2. Level 2

    If the plant staff cannot resolve the fault, Nexopel sends its own team of mechanics on site for diagnosis and repair.

  3. Level 3

    For more complex failures that require the manufacturer's specialist knowledge, PetroBio engineers are sent on site.

Spare parts and fast response

Local spare parts warehouse

Nexopel keeps a stock of spare and wear parts prioritised by importance. Parts critical to the operation of the installation are stored in Poland at Nexopel's headquarters, ensuring fast availability and reducing the risk of production downtime.

Simple ordering system

Nexopel and PetroBio provide a clear, easy-to-use system for identifying and ordering spare parts, so requests can be submitted quickly, the right components selected and orders fulfilled efficiently.

Strategic stock management

For every installation we prepare a list of key spare parts, with particular attention to components with long production or delivery times. These parts are ordered in advance and kept in Nexopel's warehouse in Poland to eliminate the risk of long downtime.
