Highly Efficient Process
Water is sterile, clear, and conserved; contains plant nutrients
>85% of feedstock carbon to oil and gas—15% of produced fuel energy runs the process

Outputs Convert to Finished Fuels
Biocrude is upgraded and refined, or blended directly with diesel fuel
Renewable Natural Gas goes into gas pipeline—no sulfur or siloxanes

• Process clearly works and scales well– Hundreds of tests on dozens of feedstocks– Extensively published in journals and DOE publications
• Quality of raw and upgraded HTL oil fully documented• CHG process works and provides the “cleanup” step
– CHG catalyst life needs further improvement• The remaining step to full commercialization is to show
industrial reliability in 24/7 operation at operating sites

HTP Addresses PFAS, PPCP
• HTL substantially destroys PFAS (per/poly-fluorinated alkyl substances)
• HTL substantially destroys PPCP (pharmaceutical and personal care products)
• Final certification awaits publication of standards and testing methods
