History

The inventiveness, enthusiasm and eco-friendly approach of a group of young engineers guided by Prof. Renato Guerriero led to the foundation of STC in 2001. Their aim, since the very beginning, was to offer services which enabled companies to reduce their operating costs, generate profit for their facilities and contribute to the protection of the environment

In order to protect this revolutionary technology, STC promptly published a patent - n. EP07425606 - about a new process for the treatment and the recovery of humid pomace produced by two-phase oil mills 

STC is the flagship company of the industrial zone of Mesagne

The wide expertise of Professor Renato Guerriero, chairman of STC’s board of directors from 2001 to 2019, enabled us to always push ourselves beyond the limits.

Much of the knowledge held by STC, deriving from research and development activities, especially those with a high degree of transferability, has been protected through the application of national and international patents.

STC actively collaborates with public and private institutions and research centres, universities and experts in the development and the realization of various R&D projects.

The plant has been completed and activated within one year and the customer’s satisfaction has been immediately confirmed

STC owns a specialized workshop operating in cooperation with qualified machine constructing companies in the area This enables STC to offer a wide range of high quality services and products, by optimizing costs and maintaining a high level of competitiveness on the market

Good design means paying attention to important details while keeping looking at the project with the eyes of the final user.

This alternative and completely eco-friendly process leads to the elimination of pyrometallurgy from the lead recycling process unless for the portion related to the metallic lead which is anyway a simple and less energy demanding process specially when previously subject to desulphurization.

STC’s wastewater treatment plant is able to recover low salinity water from the released liquids, minimize the well water withdrawal operations and to drastically reduce the volume of saline concentrates to be disposed of in landfills.

After several years of research and fine tuning of the technology, STC has realized a pilot plant able to regenerate about 2 t/d of lead oxides starting from exhausted lead paste. The batteries produced with the nanostructured oxides have a greater capacity and a longer life than those produced with traditional processes.

STC’s revolutionary and patented U4Lead technology is already working in an industrial plant supplied by STC to the Nigerian company named Green Recycling Industries. It allows the implementation of the desulphurization reaction starting from an amino compound, namely UREA, a very cheap reagent, safe for handling/storing/moving

We are pleased to become part of Monbat’s economic group. This opportunity will give us the support needed to develop further and faster innovative solutions and broaden our offering of technology in the lead industry. We used to be a small boat in a wide ocean and we needed a big hand to grow at an international level
