Problem
Businesses and communities face increasing challenges in managing waste streams, including rising disposal costs, stricter environmental regulations, and the need for sustainable resource management. Traditional waste disposal methods often result in environmental pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, and the loss of valuable resources.
Solution
IQ Energy provides modular thermal treatment units that convert diverse waste streams into valuable resources, promoting a circular economy. Their technology suite includes gasification, pyrolysis, and indirect drying units, which can be configured to process biosolids, plastics, and other organic wastes. The gasification units convert dried wastes into heat, biochar, and mineral ash. The pyrolysis units convert dried wastes into renewable natural gas or oil for advanced recycling. The indirect dryer units reduce the weight and volume of waste inputs, preparing them for thermal treatment or other applications.
Target Audience
The primary customers are businesses and communities seeking sustainable waste management solutions, including those in biosolids processing, advanced recycling, and other industries dealing with organic waste streams.
