Your passionate, technology-driven plant engineering partner

Pörner Technologies

For over 50 years, our mission has been to realize process plants with precision. The basis for this is our strong process engineering team with over 50 dedicated process engineers.

For the benefit of our customers:

  • We support professionally right from concept development, technology procurement, and technology selection
  • We provide our own special technologies and new processes
  • We develop new innovative technologies together with partners
  • We implement special technologies/new developments in large-scale plants
  • We construct plants based on
    • provided basic engineering
    • processes from licensors (process design package)

       

Our Technology Focus

The companies of the Pörner Group are continuously researching and developing new processes and solutions, both independently and in collaboration with industrial and research partners,  focusing on sustainable technologies:

Bitumen (Biturox®) Bio-Silicates Formalin & Derivate Pörner Water Bitumen Packing System Power-to-X (EDL) SDA Plus Deasphalting (EDL) Dewaxing & Deoiling (EDL) BTX-Aromatics extraction (EDL) LEPD-Technology (EDL)

Pilot Plants

Our Own Research & Development

The Pörner Group operates five in-house pilot plants to verify our processes and as a basis for designing specific industrial plants.

For over 35 years, we have been continuously developing the Pörner Biturox® technology to produce high-quality bitumen. Today, with over 60 licenses granted, we are the global market leader in bitumen oxidation.

Green Economy

In light of climate change, we are focusing significantly on the urgent need for sustainable processes and holistic technical solutions for the energy transition. Process plant engineering plays a key role in this, turning new ideas and concepts into functional, efficient, and economically viable plants while at the same time significant energy savings, resource and emission reductions .

Pörner, a long-time pioneer in innovations and technologies, actively supports you in tackling the challenge of decarbonization, focusing on: 

  1. Use of alternative energy carriers (PtX, BtX, bio-energy)
  2. Resource efficiency and energy-optimized production (Anlagenbau 4.0 - Plant Engineering 4.0)
  3. Production of valuable, recyclable products (e.g. bio-silicates)

Special Products

Our process expertise in the improved and more sustainable processing of refinery residues enables you to produce specialty products. These higher-value products are in high demand worldwide. The process chain significantly contributes to the responsible use of our natural resources.
