Wood vinegar, also known as pyroligneous acid, is a natural byproduct derived from the carbonization of wood. This organic compound primarily contains acetic acid, along with various phenolic compounds and other organic substances. Its versatility makes it a valuable resource in several sectors, including agriculture, cosmetics, and health. In agriculture, wood vinegar is utilized as a natural pesticide and fertilizer, promoting plant growth and enhancing soil health. The cosmetic industry leverages its antimicrobial properties in products aimed at skin care, while the health sector recognizes its potential benefits in traditional medicine and as a natural preservative. Overall, wood vinegar stands out as an eco-friendly alternative with a wide array of beneficial applications.

The syngas produced from our processes boasts an impressive calorific value of up to 15 GJ/m³, making it an attractive energy source for various industries. With a hydrogen to carbon monoxide ratio of 2.5 and above, our syngas is particularly suitable for applications in steel production, ammonia synthesis, and iron sponge manufacturing. This versatility positions our syngas as a valuable alternative to liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). Notably, our generated syngas does not require a catalyst for decomposition, as it is already composed of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and methane. This efficiency not only streamlines the production process but also enhances the overall sustainability of our operations, aligning with the growing demand for eco-friendly raw materials in industrial applications.

Eco-Friendly Waste Management

Our innovative process revolutionizes the way biomass is utilized by transforming four tons into one ton of charcoal, 400 liters of wood vinegar, and generating one megawatt of electricity, all while maintaining an eco-friendly approach. Unlike traditional methods, our system is designed to eliminate harmful emissions, making it a cleaner and more sustainable alternative for energy production. By optimizing resource efficiency and minimizing waste, we not only contribute to environmental preservation but also provide valuable by-products that can be used in various industries. This unique approach not only sets us apart but also aligns with the growing demand for sustainable practices in a world looking to reduce its carbon footprint. Our commitment to eco-conscious innovation highlights the potential of renewable resources in creating a greener future.

In Canada clean technologies are revolutionizing the way we recover resources from biomass. These processes efficiently reclaim an impressive 80% of the resources and carbon contained within biomass, addressing key environmental concerns. Furthermore, the thermal energy efficiency of these processes has reached a remarkable 97%. This level of effectiveness is made possible through the utilization of unique insulation materials designed specifically for our process kilns. By harnessing these advanced materials, we maximize energy retention and minimize heat loss, ultimately driving significant progress towards sustainable resource management and reducing our carbon footprint. The commitment to innovation in clean tech not only fosters environmental stewardship but also promotes economic growth and energy independence in Canada.

Charcoal Production

We produce 1 ton of charcoal from 4 tons of biomass waste using our eco-friendly process.

Charcoal has a wide range of applications beyond its common use as a barbecue energy source. It can be converted into activated carbon, which is extensively utilized in water and wastewater treatment. Our charcoal production process yields a product with up to 80% carbon content, making it a promising resource for carbon steel production. This high carbon concentration results in a calorific value of up to 28 gigajoules per ton, which is comparable to that of diesel fuel. The versatility of charcoal in these various domains highlights its potential as a valuable material, contributing not only to energy generation but also to critical environmental applications.

Wood Vinegar

Our process generates 400 liters of wood vinegar, a valuable byproduct from biomass recycling.

Wood vinegar, a natural byproduct of the pyrolysis process of wood, has a range of application fields that showcase its numerous benefits. In agriculture, it serves as an effective organic pesticide and fertilizer, promoting healthy plant growth while enhancing soil quality. Additionally, wood vinegar is utilized in aquaculture to improve water quality and promote fish health. Its antimicrobial properties make it beneficial for food preservation, helping to prolong shelf life and reduce spoilage. Moreover, wood vinegar is gaining recognition in the cosmetic industry for its skincare benefits, particularly in toning and revitalizing skin. Its natural composition and versatility make it an eco-friendly alternative in various industries, contributing to sustainable practices and improving environmental health. Overall, the diverse applications of wood vinegar highlight its significance as a multifunctional resource.
