In May 2026, we had the pleasure of welcoming numerous visitors to our joint booth at IFAT and engaging in many inspiring conversations about sustainable environmental technologies.
A special “thank you” goes to our colleague Laura, who represented us on-site with great dedication in her role as Project and Product Manager. With her expertise, passion for innovative technologies, and approachable personality, she became the go-to contact for many visitors at our booth. 🤝
In the interview, Laura shares insights into her focus on PlasmaSun and explains why the development of sustainable technologies is more important today than ever before. Global uncertainties, our dependence on fossil fuels, and the growing impact of climate change highlight the urgent need to explore new approaches and actively address existing challenges.
As a research- and development-driven company, we are committed to developing solutions for real-world environmental challenges every day. Our goal is to advance sustainable technologies, contribute to the reduction of CO₂ emissions, and help create a more sustainable future for generations to come. 🌱

From Red Mud to Resource – at Ermafa Environmental Technologies for a Sustainable Circular Economy 🌱
During the production of aluminum oxide, a by-product is generated that causes major ecological challenges worldwide: red mud – highly toxic and difficult to dispose of. ☢️
We are researching innovative solutions to reduce this threat to humans and nature and to transform red mud into valuable materials in line with the principles of the circular economy. ♻️
To make the connections between red mud, aluminum production, and our innovative process more understandable, we have launched a video series. 👀
In the first episode, we focus on the raw material bauxite; its history, discovery, and importance for the aluminum industry. ⚙️
What you will learn in this video:
🔺 What is bauxite? Composition, properties & aluminum content
🔺 Name origin & global deposits: from Southern France to Australia
🔺 Uses: from aluminum to rare earth elements
🔺 Importance for industry. Why our economy depends on it
🔺 Environmental impact: open-pit mining, rainforest loss, soil & water pollution
🔺 Future & recycling: how red mud processing strengthens resource security
📣 Share your opinion with us:
Do you think recycling bauxite waste will become more important than mining itself in the future? Let us know in the comments!

At IFAT, we had the opportunity to present our forward-looking technologies to an international expert audience. A special thank you goes to our colleague and project lead Bilgehan, Head of the PlasmaSun team. 🤝
As a key contact at our booth, he held numerous technical discussions and provided visitors with deep insights into the potential of our plasma technology. His expertise and commitment played a crucial role in clearly communicating this innovative research and development project.
PlasmaSun focuses on plasma pyrolysis and the splitting of methane into hydrogen and carbon black. In addition, the technology enables the environmentally friendly conversion of waste into valuable synthesis gas (syngas). The goal is to break down materials on a molecular level and open new pathways toward a sustainable circular economy, resource-efficient raw material recovery, and climate-friendly energy production. 🌱
Developing such technologies is highly complex and comes with significant challenges. This makes a strong team even more essential, one that works with passion, expertise, and perseverance to shape future solutions.
In the video, Bilgehan provides exciting insights into the technology behind PlasmaSun and the various projects currently being advanced within this R&D field.
