Change of management in Plant Construction at EnviTec Biogas AG

4 April 2024 – Stability and change have always been part of Plant Construction at Germany’s largest biogas producer EnviTec Biogas – and not just in the plant construction systems themselves but also as regards the makeup of top management in this foundational segment. Since early 2024, this international mid-sized enterprise from Saerbeck and Lohne, Germany, has relied on the expertise of Jakob Falkenstein, Maurice Markerink and CTO Jürgen Tenbrink. Following a transitional period, the new trio becomes the management team at EnviTec Plant Construction – EnviTec Anlagenbau GmbH & Co. KG - with effect from 1 April 2024. 

“We’re of course aiming to use this management structure to build on the achievements of the past few years while facing the new challenges and opportunities in the market with our technical expertise and entrepreneurial vision,” comments Olaf von Lehmden, CEO of EnviTec Biogas AG. CFO Jörg Fischer and Lars von Lehmden, who previously managed Plant Construction with Jürgen Tenbrink, will remain associated with the segment via the newly formed Advisory Board. Lars von Lehmden, who was previously responsible for national and international biogas sales and related processes in Plant Construction, will continue to manage business development for the USA in this segment as well as project development for international own-operation projects.

Continuing to develop partnerships

“The biogas market continues to develop apace and project volumes are increasing,” comments CTO and Plant Construction Managing Director Jürgen Tenbrink. EnviTec appointed Tenbrink as the company’s Technical Director in 2002. Since 2010, his directorial responsibilities have expanded to include research and development, quality assurance, purchasing and project execution. In his role as Plant Construction director, he will continue to be responsible for the areas of research and development, purchasing, gas upgrading, CO2 liquefaction_, electrical systems and process automation plus overall management of the company’s Saerbeck site from 2024. “Projects are tending to become more complex and more synergy effects are arising in relation to ancillary technologies like carbon dioxide and methane liquefaction,” Tenbrink continues. Most recently, he and his team developed and implemented EnviTec’s in-house control and visualisation system as well as remote dialling systems with increased security against cyberattacks for biogas and gas upgrading plants.
