WE CAN PROVIDE A SOLUTION TO SUGARCANE TRASH BURNING

 

  • We use proven technology from Europe for the conversion of cellulosic biomass directly, in a one-step process and a matter of seconds and highly energy efficient into renewable, carbon-neutral VLSFO (Very Low Sulfur Fuel Oil) as it is required by IMO2020 for sea ships. Further refined also road diesel and A1 jet fuel.

  • In other words it is possible to convert the cane trash into fuel oil, converting the problem into an opportunity

Trash burning before and after harvest is an environmental hazard. The United Nations’ UNEP and CCAC are campaigning against the practice with limited success. We can make an impact by adding value to the “worthless” waste, supporting poor farmers in the developing world as well.

We solve this problem by processing biomass waste or purpose-grown biomass into valuable products such as renewable, low-carbon Fuel Oil and other by products:

  • A drop-in solution for substituting or replacing ”VLSFO (Very Low Sulfur Fuel Oil) Marine Diesel (ISO8217) and liquid fuel for thermal power plants. Our fuel can be mixed in any ratio with its fossil counterparts, or used alone, guaranteeing a smooth transition to a cleaner future. 

  • Bio-Bitumen – Renewable Bitumen to replace and improve conventional Bitumen, e.g. for road construction.The bitumen also stores long-term large amounts of CO2 in the form of solid  carbon, acting as carbon sequestration, which can render our fuel carbon-NEGATIVE – which means storing more carbon than is later exhausted by the ships’ stacks.

  • Wood Vinegar –  Natural protection against harmful insects and plant diseases as well as Fertilizer for Organic Farming.

Defusing the problem to everybody‘s benefit

►Agricultural field burning, though practiced for centuries, is a harm- and wasteful method of disposing of biomass waste, killing valuable soil microbes, and reducing the fertility of the soil. Tons of harmful substances like PM2.5, CO, CO4 (methane), and others are blown into the air, threatening the health of the population in the neighborhood.  

►Sugar trash burning is an archaic method, which is outdated and replaced by green harvesting. Even in Cuba cane trash is collected and burned centrally. Brazil, Australia, and many other countries are increasingly adopting the cleaner solution.

►The sugarcane industry claims switching to green harvesting would cost them $24 million per annum. If we collect the trash or they deliver it to us as a commodity, we can balance these costs. A win-win situation.

►The health risks of the population in the Glades would be eliminated.

►We would create agricultural and other jobs in the area.

►The maritime industry, which is under severe environmental scrutiny, would have the option to purchase our renewable, carbon-neutral Fuel Oil and reduce its carbon footprint by more than 75%. Only 50% is the target of IMO 2050, which could be already reached in 2030 or earlier.

►A successful pilot project in Florida would open opportunities in other states like Louisiana, Texas, and California. In the northern States, woody biomass could be processed.
