Green Create builds, owns and operates (BOO) integrated biological waste-to-value systems for application in industrial processes as well as commercial developments. We work primarily with anaerobic biological technology, which as a by-product of processing organic waste or wastewater streams, generates energy rich biogas. This gas can be upgraded into a number of useful energy forms, targeted at producing electricity and thermal energy to be used by the primary process.With two successful plants in Africa, our company is quickly growing and expanding our services both globally and across the African continent. Our goal is reduce carbon emissions and help clients meet their triple bottom line needs. We offer our clients innovative waste to value solutions for organic waste and waste water treatment.

Clear Industry Technology is a technology company and project integrator in the waste to value industry. We treat organic waste streams and transform them into valuable products such as power, heat and upgraded biogas (bio-CNG). The solutions we offer range from typical water treatment solutions to higher solids CSTR solutions, although our R&D continues to work on new developments such as waste to protein through BSF. Having completed many successful EPC projects (mainly in water treatment) we are now moving up in the value chain and enter into BOO/BOT projects as well.
