A Multi-Billion Dollar Renewable Market. Stranded on Every Farm.

Icon of poo.

41 Million tons. Every year.

The US alone produces 41M+ tons of livestock manure annually It's the largest single waste stream in American agriculture. Supply grows with every herd expansion.
Icon of a funnel.

Supply is the bottleneck.

RNG, hydrogen, methanol, and SAF off-takers face a feedstock shortage. Domestic, low-CI supply commands premium pricing. Demand isn't the constraint, supply is.

The status quo stinks.

Open lagoons stew in the sun, breeding flies by the millions. They feed on the muck and carry bacteria to produce, lunch counters, and dinner plates miles away.
Icon of a pouch, resembling a coin bag.

Federal incentives lift every ton.

45V, 45Q, LCFS, and RFS pay a premium for low-carbon fuels. The economics already work, federal policy makes them work harder.

THE SH*T SHOW IS OVER.

Gone are the days of manure rotting in open cesspools. Thermolic is the step change the industry has been waiting for: A sealed reactor that converts 100% of the input into high-quality syngas and Thermolic Carbon.
