Biomass Processing
| Hydrothermal carbonization | We have developed hydrothermal carbonization as a feasible process for converting wet wastes (i.e., food waste, wastewater sludge, green waste, organic fraction of MSW). The process is best suited for converting wastes to a carbonaceous, hydrophobic char suitable for subsequent gasification or pyrolysis without requiring a thermally expensive step for drying. Hydrothermal processing can also be used to liquefy wastes to produce an aqueous stream suitable for conversion to natural gas by anaerobic digestion. |

Biomass Processing
| Anaerobic Digestion of Food Waste to Vehicle Fuel | Chomp Inc. (formerly Impact Bioenergy) manufactures modular, containerized small- to mid-sized anaerobic digesters installed on-site to directly process food waste and other organic waste. The biogas produced can be upgraded and conditioned on-site to vehicle-grade CNG for use in CNG-converted vehicles for personal, commercial delivery, and other fleet use. GHG emissions-related benefits include: diversion of waste from landfills (reduced CO2 emissions from waste hauling and avoided landfill methane), and displacement of conventional petroleum-based vehicle fuels (reduction in life-cycle processing, transport, and combustion emissions). |

| | If PSE collaborates with an engineering firm for the WASTE: Waste Analysis and Strategies for Transportation End-uses funding opportunity, we could make a very strong proposal for working with communities to advance their waste management strategies and provide sustainable public transportation. There are two Topic Areas for this proposal, Topic Area 1 is a feasibility study for a local community, Topic Area 2 is for communities that previously completed a feasibility analysis and need help going to the next step, which includes some experimental work (engineering firm), with air quality analysis (PSE). While the proposal is focused on the engineering support for the waste-to-fuel systems, PSE can make a significant contribution through air quality analysis and cumulative burden analysis. Additionally, PSE can provide valuable information for local community partners that goes beyond the initial information needed for future permits. PSE can develop a more holistic approach for communities and local governmental bodies, helping them with community engagement and feedback, and providing resources like decision matrices and factsheets for future waste management and infrastructure decisions. We can emphasize that a key component of effective waste management infrastructure is community engagement and education on waste, and a strong community communication strategy will significantly help local governments prepare for the future permitting and implementation stages of the waste-to-fuel programs. |
