Many years of field research and testing using conventional combustion methods proved to Ecoremedy® inventors that a technical advancement was needed to properly convert the most difficult, messy wastes to useable energy and marketable by-products. Ecoremedy is specifically designed to address the unique properties and chemical constituents of these challenging waste streams.
Ecoremedy gasifies fuels outside competitors' capabilities while performing equally well on “standard” feedstock. Unlike other thermal gasification systems, Ecoremedy can process materials without pre-conditioning materials that are high in moisture (>80%), have high moisture variability, contain high ash (up to 25x wood), and have low energy value (as low as 2,700 Btu/lb). The quiescent bed ensures consistent syngas production and low fly ash carryover, assuring continuous, clean and efficient energy production for a wide variety of biomass materials.
Our patented technology, combined with infinitely variable feed rates, allows Ecoremedy to customize the amount of carbon in the recovered nutrient thus maximizing its commercial value based upon real-time market conditions. Ecoremedy can tailor the ash quality from <2% residual carbon to >40% residual carbon and back again without retooling or stopping the system. This enables the client-operator to make operational adjustments based upon the real-time market conditions of electricity, fossil fuels, nutrients, or activated biochar values.

Our patented low-velocity design minimizes particulate carryover assuring the complete combustion of carbon. This means cleaner, more efficient energy production, meeting state and federal guidelines with minimal abatement cost. For animal manures and biosolid waste, Ecoremedy uses the constituents of the fuel to self-scrub the criteria pollutants of NOx and SOx and minimize HCl emissions.
The EPA has concluded that Ecoremedy Fluid Lift Gasification™ is not incineration and is therefore exempt from Sewage Sludge Incineration (SSI) regulations.
Ecoremedy advanced gasification converts raw solids to highly marketable fertilizer with more than 90% available nutrients— 150% better than traditional techniques.
Flexible operations without compare. Ecoremedy’s Fluid Lift Gasification process is uniquely capable of converting all carbon to renewable energy resulting in FlexChar-00, or recovering high carbon content residuals resulting in FlexChar-60+. Only Ecoremedy can provide a complete range of carbon content products using the same system, without stopping or retooling the equipment.

Dry, concentrated nutrients are easy to handle compared to high liquid effluent from anaerobic digestion and wastewater treatment plants. Ecoremedy conversion of waste to pure, commercial-grade nutrients enables economic transportation of nutrients away from nutrient-saturated watersheds to deficit regions, displacing mined fertilizer.
Fuel flexibility, high energy conversion rates, high retained nutrient value, low construction complexity, and low operating costs result in compelling economics while maintaining above-market returns on project capital without reliance on government or utility subsidies.
The entire Ecoremedy system is proudly fabricated in the United States.
