The Pacific Pyrolysis technology platform is a fundamental example of the delivery of a local technical solution to local manifestations of global sustainability issues for organisations and governments. A new era of lowâ€emission, lowâ€impact technology is expected to come of age over the next twoâ€three decades in addition to greater utilisation of known technologies, which have lower emission impact. The demand for clean technology solutions to problems has become a business mainstream activity. Solutions that can be deployed repeatedly across multiple sites benefit both the technology provider and the customer. Strong demand for such solutions exists from both private and public sector organisations, especially if the local deployment of a technical solution can be completed with:
• A relatively low capital cost;
• A good internal rate of return to equity investors in the projects concerned;
• Successful resolution of issues or problems for the organisation(s) concerned; and
• Development of a project solution, followed by execution and
operation inside a reasonable timeframe.
It has become evident that a key to technological and business success in this space will be to deliver local solutions to companies and organisations which are impacted on multiple sites or in multiple business areas by the same or similar global issues such as emissions, energy supply, waste disposal, poor soil health, etc.
The Pacific Pyrolysis slow pyrolysis technology is truly carbon negative (reduces atmospheric CO2) by using waste biomass such as animal manures and greenwaste to produce renewable energy and biochar, a product that contains high quantities of very stable carbon. The renewable energy produced can displace fossil fuels, while biochar can sequester carbon beneficially over the long term in soil, which is a natural, low risk sink. The Pacific Pyrolysis technology platform is based on slow pyrolysis, which is the thermoâ€chemical decomposition of organic material (biomass) at elevated temperatures in the absence of oxygen
