Hyperthermics

About

Hyperthermics is a private headquartered in Ulsteinvik, Norway specializing in Biogas, Hydrogen.

Hyperthermics AS is a biotechnology company specializing in hyperthermophilic fermentation systems that accelerate the conversion of organic waste, agricultural residues, and industrial by-products into renewable biogas, biohydrogen, and protein-rich products. The company leverages heat-loving microorganisms (extremophiles) originally discovered in deep-sea hydrothermal vents and volcanic environments, enabling fermentation at temperatures up to 80°C. This approach significantly increases methane yields and reduces processing time compared to conventional mesophilic biogas systems. Hyperthermics provides end-to-end services including laboratory testing, process optimization, and full-scale industrial implementation, with particular expertise in challenging feedstocks such as pig slurry, dairy manure, straw, seaweed, and aquaculture sludge. The company operates advanced facilities in Norway and Germany, serving biogas manufacturers, aquaculture operations, and agri-industrial clients. Founded by Jan Remmereit, the company has developed a substantial intellectual property portfolio in biogas optimization and microbial protein production.
