Investor Pitch · v1 · Draft
02 · PROBLEM
The opportunity
Industrial fuel buyers are paying for fuel.
Farms are paying to dispose of waste. The streams never meet.
$3–$5
per gallon
Railroads, marine operators, and municipal boiler users are already paying this for low-carbon liquid fuel.
1B+
tons per year
U.S. farms, sawmills, and forestry operations pay tipping fees to dispose of biomass waste every year.
We connect them — converting waste tonnage into drop-in renewable fuel.

08 · SCALE-UP PATH
Pilot → Commercial → Full Plant
One reactor architecture. Three phases. Already engineered.
Phase 1 · 2026
6 TPD
Pilot Plant
- Eastern Shore, MD · equipment owned
- Commissioning Q4 2026
- Funded by this $3M round
- ~620 gal bio-oil/day · ~1.2 t biochar/day
- Proves economics + first revenue
Phase 2 · 2029
75 TPD
First Commercial Unit
- Reactor design complete (Energywerx grant)
- Engineering funded by this round
- $15M CapEx · Series A construction capital
- ~7,725 gal bio-oil/day · ~15 t biochar/day
- Projected $15M revenue · proves replicability
Phase 3 · 2030
300 TPD
Full Commercial Plant
- 4 × 75 TPD reactors in parallel
- Identical engineering — replication, not new R&D
- $55M total CapEx · Series A + project finance
- Projected $60.9M revenue · $46M EBITDA
- Beachhead market: poultry litter + wood waste, GA/AR/AL/NC/MS
Site note: Original Salisbury, MD pilot site is held up by neighborhood litigation. Pilot is relocating to the Eastern Shore of Maryland — no comparable constraint at the new site.
