Confectionery Production
Production of confectionery and baked goods
Generate energy from sweet by-products.
In confectionery and bakery production, large amounts of wastewater rich in sugar, fat, and starch, as well as organic production residues, are generated every day – from dough leftovers and glazes to fillings and cleaning processes. FlexBio technology provides cost-efficient solutions tailored specifically to this industry – turning these waste streams into eco-friendly energy.
Our compact, modular container systems are perfectly designed for the needs of confectionery producers. They reliably treat wastewater – even with highly fluctuating contents – while simultaneously converting organic residues into biogas. This reduces disposal efforts, cuts energy costs, and strengthens your company’s environmental footprint.
With FlexBio, professional and resource-efficient wastewater and residue treatment becomes feasible even for small and medium-sized confectionery businesses. Our turnkey solution delivers everything from a single source – from customized planning to ongoing support.

With FlexBio’s anaerobic wastewater treatment, you save up to 90% energy compared to conventional aerobic processes – reducing 1 kg of COD requires only 0.07–0.1 kWh instead of 0.7–1 kWh.

kWh
From 1 kg of COD, around 0.35 m³ of methane is generated – providing about 3.5 kWh of primary energy. This way, wastewater becomes not only clean water but also a valuable source of energy.

1 ton of waste bread generates around 3,500 kWh of energy (as methane) – equal to the annual electricity consumption of an average household!
Efficient solution for confectionery manufacturers – compact, economical, sustainable
FlexBio systems are delivered as compact, modular container solutions – flexibly adaptable and individually scalable to meet the demands of confectionery production. At the core is the high-performance fermenter, efficiently converting organic substances such as sugar, starch, fats, dough, and glaze residues into biogas – a valuable, renewable energy source for your business. This way, production waste becomes a usable resource.
Whether you produce cookies, cakes, bars, or sweet spreads – FlexBio offers you a tailored solution that works reliably. The systems are space-saving, future-proof, and seamlessly integrable into existing processes.
Through the anaerobic treatment and fermentation process, climate-friendly biogas is generated, which you can use directly for electricity and heat production. This not only reduces your energy costs in the long term but also actively improves your CO₂ balance – a true gain for your business and the environment.
