Innovations for a circular and sustainable future

WAI Environmental Solutions provides innovative solutions to improve sustainability of the high carbon emission companies and the waste management industry.

CarbonWorks®

CarbonWorks® is WAI’s brand name for individual biocarbon production facilities. 

CarbonWorks® represents an entire biocarbon production process including: 
  • feedstock storage and pre-treatment
  • pyrolysis
  • syngas combustion and heat recovery
  • flue gas treatment
  • biocarbon formulation stages
The CarbonWorks process can in-take the following feedstocks:  
  • forest residue (especially sawmill by-products, such as sawdust, wood chips, bark and shavings)
  • forest logging residues
  • demolition wood, garden waste
  • pulp & paper
  • biorefinery waste 
 
Besides biocarbon, CarbonWorks® plants also produce renewable energy in the forms of hot water, steam, electricity. 
For electricity production, CarbonWorks® engages an Organic Ranking Cycle (ORC) technology.
CarbonWorks® plants will be built according to all applicable laws, regulations and standards and addressing all relevant EHS (environment, health and safety) measures.
CarbonWorks® meets all emission requirements using BAT (Best Available Techniques) for cleaning flue gas.
 

   A standard CarbonWorks® plant can:

  • process 60,000 tons of sawmill by-products and waste wood annually
  • produce 10,000 tons of biocarbon pellets and 55 GWh renewable energy annually
  • reduce 33,000 tons CO2 emissions in metallurgical industry annually
  • meet new requirements for emissions to air
  • reduce 90% truck traffic from sawmill by converting bulky by-products to dense biocarbon pellets
  • save sawmill investment on new boilers by supplying hot water to sawmills
  • create higher value for sawmill by-products and waste wood, and realize material recycling
