Heating & Industrial

Boilers are quiet, repetitive and expensive when combustion is inefficient. NTROPYX turns year-round heating oil burn into a measurable recovery opportunity.

Market exposed33.8 Bn L
Recovery signal9% recoverable
Proof contextYear-round boiler burn
01 · Fuel recovery

Reduce annual heating-oil waste.

High-volume boiler fuel turns small combustion gains into visible annual economics for facilities and industrial sites.

02 · Stable burn

Support cleaner, steadier combustion.

The value is not theatrical: less residue burden, cleaner burn behaviour and a simpler maintenance conversation.

03 · Simple adoption

Match dosage to existing fuel volume.

No replacement narrative. The buyer sees a controlled additive route aligned with supply, tanks and operating demand.

Why NTROPYX here

Clear enough for facility directors.

Immediate message: fuel efficiency, cleaner combustion, lower waste and a commercial path sized to the sector.

§ 02 · Economic impact

EU27 + CH — 33.8 billion litres of heating oil. 9% recoverable.

European households burned 746 072 TJ of heating oil in 2023; industrial & commercial boilers added another 385 058 TJ (Eurostat). Switzerland adds 2.36 billion litres (Avenergy Suisse). Combined EU27 + CH: ~33.8 Bn L diesel-equivalent — the quietest, year-round high-volume burn in the portfolio. Cleaner combustion = stable burn rate + extended boiler service intervals.
