ALL Power Labs - Model CharTainer - CHAB Pyrolyzer System for Biomass Waste Conversion

The CharTainer is being developed to meet the ever-increasing demands for localized biomass waste disposal as well as high-quality, high-temperature, electrically active biochar in the agronomy and climate/carbon mitigation sectors. Partnering with our carbon-drawdown initiative, The Local Carbon Network, APL’s engineers have been working with biologists, agronomists, farmers, and climate researchers to perfect biochar-retort technology and biochar application techniques. One result of this work is the design of the Pilot CharTainer, capable of a 250 kgs-of-biomass-per-hour throughput delivering up to 50 kilograms per hour of SkyCarbon biochar, some of the highest quality, tar-free, geo-conducting biochar available.

We are currently developing a pilot unit with CEC funding. Our intent was to already be shipping commercial production units, but pandemic restrictions have pushed back the timeline. Our beta unit should be shipped to our first customer for testing in a real-world site soon. We offer these data with reasonable confidence given our long-running data acquisition in the development of our gasifier-genset systems and distribution of their biochar byproduct.
