Our new catalyst-based carbonization technology enables the upcycling of food waste.
For factories and other facilities that generate or collect large volumes of food waste, this technology offers the potential for significant environmental benefits.

The carbonization process also reduces waste volume to approximately one-tenth of its original size, enabling less frequent waste collection and lower transportation costs.

Building a Circular Resource System

We build upcycling systems and infrastructure for circular resource use.

Local Partnerships

We work with nearby communities to cut transport, costs, and CO₂ emissions while creating local resource loops.

Building the Platform

We purchase all recovered resources from waste producers and supply them to users, creating a circular resource platform.

Expanding Processing Scope

Starting with coffee grounds, we are expanding into all organic waste and increasing both the range and volume processed.

Expanding Applications

We aim to supply fuel to power plants and generate power at waste-producing factories, creating on-site resource loops.

Technology

Our catalytic low-temperature technology converts organic waste into biochar without high-temperature combustion.
Its compact design enables on-site processing where waste is generated.

Note: Only food and other organic waste can be processed.
