We are here to solve two major anthropomorphic concerns, climate change and human waste, and make money at it. As we go through the solutions for these concerns, you will see the depth and simplicity of these technologies.

The answer to these concerns is readily available, modular equipment that takes only a minimal amount of engineering to set in place.

This is a unicorn level market opportunity. Picture a $5M investment with the ability of providing no less than $2M of immediate return per year.

So, how does this work. The best way to explain this is an example. Take a city with a population of 75,000 people. There are three modular pieces of equipment set in place at the city’s wastewater treatment plant. When a city is finished treating the water there is a large amount of sludge remaining for disposal. That sludge on average is 80% water. There are three main ways for sludge disposal; incineration, land application and landfilling. Because incineration in itself is highly polluting, it is already being moved away from. Land application is where the sludge is sprayed out on the ground on farms or fields. Landfilling is simply trucking and dumping the sludge at a landfill. Many municipalities in the US are moving away from landfilling and land application. In fact, California has already outlawed landfilling and has greatly restricted land application. This can be found in California bill HB1383.

Here's how you make money. In a city with 75,000 people, meaning 25 to 30,000 homes, all the businesses, factories and government already pays $1M per year to dispose of wastewater sludge. The cities want this process because it doesn’t cost more and it solves the disposal problem forever. This means $1M per year directly from the wastewater treatment facility. The other benefit to the treatment plant is that the equipment returns half of the water from the sludge to the treatment facility.

The first piece of equipment is for dehydration. Through unique process of industrial scale electro-kinetics, meaning there is no mechanical or high temperature higher costs involved. This takes the sludge to 50% dry solids. It is then processed through a dryer at 500 degrees Celsius to approximately 85 to 90% dry solids. At this point it is considered a “class A” biosolid with no pathogens, bacteria or viruses. From this point it is processed through pyrolysis. Pyrolysis is running the dried biosolid waste through a furnace at 625 degrees Celsius without oxygen.

All of this equipment and supporting equipment is available. This has been being done in Europe for decades but is only catching hold now in the US. There is none manufacturing this equipment in the US.

The second way to make money with this opportunity are a vast amount of carbon credits. Pyrolysis converts the sludge to high grade biochar. When the sludge becomes biochar, it sequesters thousands of tons of CO2.

The third way to make money is biochar. It is a product with value and we own it. It can be sold into the cement and asphalt industries as a low cost, product enhancing fill material and diminishes the production of manufacturing of CO2 producing fill materials, generating even more carbon credits for your customers. It can also be sold to farms as a soil amendment. This is currently the largest market for biochar. There are many benefits at farms such as water retention and slow release of specific nutrients for specific crops.

Commercial and Industrial water treatment want to do this simply based on carbon credits. The competition is foreign made equipment manufacturers having difficulties selling into the US market. No one is manufacturing this simple system in north or south America. Because the system modular it can be scaled up or down depending on requirements.

To get to market we build the full scale, highly profitable demonstration facility. We continue by offering properly scaled facilities by either our self-funded financing or being the financing arm industrial and municipal clients. While doing so we will be working on the funding to manufacture these relatively simple systems. Manufacturing set up is estimated as an approximate $6 to 8M depending on scale. It should create hundreds of jobs. There may be federal, state and local funding available for all stages of this proposal.

This proposal significantly adds to resolving climate change and removes human, animal, agricultural and industrial waste at a profit.

There is much more benefit and profit to this opportunity that isn’t explained here. Items like what if a cement or asphalt company wanted to do this in multiple locations (they will). This is just the beginning. If you have a better plan, or can add to this, we should talk.
