2. Our vision is farmers using their wastes
to drive sustainable bioenergy projects.
Our mission is to provide the pathways
between biomass resources and
technology.
Our goal is to be recognised as a
leading biomass development company
in Australia.
21. And have developed a business model
that shares the benefits.

23. Chandala Poultry
Current Situation Chandala Poultry produces approx. 3000 tonnes of
chicken litter/year. This waste represents a biosecurity
issue for the farm and creates methane and nitrous
oxide emissions.
Opportunity We plan to use pyrolysis to recover the energy from the
litter and meet the farms electrical, heat and cooling
requirements.
24. Other projects
Brickworks To use local biomass (straw) to generate process
heat and electricity.
On farm pyrolysis To use local biomass (straw) to generate process heat
and electricity.
Livestock Process stockyard bedding via pyrolysis to recover the
energy and use the energy on site for the saleyards
electrical requirements.
City Biogas Taking food, used cooking oil and green waste in a CBD
context and processing it via AD into heat and power
Dairy WA dairies have very high energy costs and
underutilisation of dairy waste is creating methane
emissions.
26. The next steps…
construct our own pyrolysis kiln and conduct our
own test work
continue biochar trials (research partners?)
investigate emission reduction potential of these
projects
investigate markets for nutrient rich bi-products
increase our capacity to respond to the growing
amount of inquiries we get through our website.
Biochar – important to gain an understanding of its performance and also handling
Northern end of the West Australian WheatbeltMining industry – Iron ore being the largest contributor exporting approx. 4 million tonnes/yearLarge grains industry (wheat, canola and lupins) exporting approx. 2 millions tonnes/year and producing 20% of the states grain harvest SKA Project – Square Kilometre Array Regional airport and en-route to Asia and the Middle East
We have shelved this project due to lack of funds and delays with the CGG releasing their plans for waste to energy.

Really excited about the future of biomass to liquid. We think fast pyrolysis and straw to ethanol all have potential in the Mid West.
