The PFAS problem is hitting news channels worldwide. These forever chemicals do not belong in a circular economy, threatening human health and our natural ecosystems. One proven way to combat this is Pyrocal's very own Continuous Carbonisation Technology - transforming biosolids from wastewater treatment into biochar and destroying the majority of PFAS in the process 👊

About us
Pyrocal Pty Ltd is an innovative Australian engineering company specialising in the design, build and installation of Continuous Carbonisation Technology (CCT) systems that transform biomass and biosolids into biochar and renewable energy. Established in 2014, Pyrocal is based in Toowoomba, Queensland Australia, where it operates a full scale commercial system and conducts R&D. Pyrocal's systems have been deployed around the world in a variety of applications. Most recently, Pyrocal partnered with Logan City Council and Downer to develop Australia’s first biosolids gasification facility, reducing carbon emissions by 6,000 tonnes per annum and saving $1m. Globally, Pyrocal has one of the most proven advanced systems that is backed by a highly qualified team and can be adapted to meet customers’ specific requirements and operating conditions. The system is ideally placed in a circular economy model, where it is located in close proximity to the biomass waste and the biochar’s end use. This also maximises the opportunity to generate carbon credits. In addition to selling its systems, Pyrocal also sells its high quality biochar under the Terix brand, and is an approved supplier of carbon removal credits (CORCs) with Puro.earth. The Pyrocal team is highly motivated to be at the forefront of accelerating carbon dioxide removal in pursuit of net negative emissions.

We're really proud to be partnering with Stahmann Webster on Australia's first large-scale biochar project for the nut industry. It takes courage and leadership to go first and we're excited to share this journey with them and demonstrate the role our technology can play in achieving ESG outcomes. #biochar #esg
We're really proud to announce a new project at our Leeton facility that will transform walnut shell waste into biochar, enhancing our waste management practices, improving soil health, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Biochar boosts soil carbon content, improves nutrient storage, increases water holding capacity, and can enhance fertiliser efficiency. Additionally, it helps sequester carbon in the soil, which will assist in the fight against climate change. Using Toowoomba-based Pyrocal’s continuous carbonisation technology system, we'll process 4,000 metric tons of walnut shell waste annually, converting it into biochar. We are excited to share this journey 🌱

Rain didn't dampen our spirits welcoming Queensland Water Directorate and Unitywater to Pyrocal this week. We've recently become a member of Queensland Water Directorate, the central advisory and advocacy body within Queensland's urban water industry who work with members to progress safe, secure and sustainable water and sewage services across all Queensland communities. With one of our key capabilities being biosolids gasification, we're looking forward to delivering more projects in Queensland and beyond. #biosolids #gasificiation #circulareconomy

Hot off the line this biochar is produced from Stahmann Webster's pecan shell. Did you know that 1 tonne of this biochar removes 2 tonnes of CO2? We're pretty excited about the opportunity biochar presents as a scalable and scientifically verifiable Negative Emission Technology🔥 #biochar #carbonremoval #gasification #australianmanufacturing

Thank you Johanna Johnson, William S. and the Logan Water team for hosting us this week and showing our visitors from Synagro, North America's largest recycler of organic by-products, your multi award-winning biosolids gasification facility in the City of Logan. As the gasification technology partner in this Australian-first project, Pyrocal is super proud that our systems (designed and manufactured in South East Queensland btw 👊) are an integral part of the solution to transform biosolids, a growing and problematic waste stream, into #biochar which delivers a multitude of benefits. If you're in wastewater treatment and want to learn more about biosolids gasification, we'll be on stand C35 at the Australian Water Association's Ozwater exhibition in Melbourne from 30 April - 2 May. #gasification #biosolids #wastewatertreatment #circulareconomy #pfas
