Millions of tonnes of greenhouse gases are
released into the atmosphere from agriculture.
Through new agricultural systems
we can reduce these emissions
and create new revenue streams for farmers.
We are…

We have combined our engineering
and agriculture skills to develop
bioenergy and waste to energy
projects.

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 agricultural based biomass development company in Australia.

manures, compost and biochar.

We are sharing our story…

and have been getting enquiries from
all over the world.

Our projects include:

Mid West Waste to Energy
Current Situation Mid West farmers burn approx. one million Ha’s of crop
residue to control chemical resistant weeds.
This is a resource going to waste, burning stubbles
reduces air quality, wastes nutrients and creates
greenhouse gas emissions.
![Page 21: Energy Farmers - Bioenergy and Biomass](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/5597d9be1a28aba95e8b46d6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Mid West Waste to Energy
Opportunity We can capture this resource (weeds included), and
process it via gasification/pyrolysis into power, heat and
biofuels.
Nutrient rich bi-products can be used to replace fossil
based fertilisers and to lock away carbon in the soil.

Mid West Waste to Energy
Status • We have signed a development agreement with
technology provider and initiated stage 1 of a 3 stage
development plan.
• We are conducting test work on crop residue and
municipal waste for nutrient balance and energy
value.
• We are engaging with farmers and potential
development partners.

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.

Chandala Poultry
Status • Signed MOA with Chandala Poultry
• Initiated test work on the chicken litter
• Constructing pyrolysis kiln for testwork.
• Identifying markets for biochar.
• Engaging with farmers to conduct crop trials using
biochar in the 2013 season
• Investigating methodology development under the
Carbon Faming Initiative.

These projects can be scaled up and
replicated globally. They all…
generate a commercial return
reduce agricultural emissions
produce renewable energy
create nutrient rich bi-products
store carbon in soils
generate carbon credits
provide local employment.
