Three planning-level calculators, built on the same figures published above — not a sales projection, a starting point for the conversation with our engineers.

Yield is feedstock-dependent — refinery waste and tires run higher-BTU than food waste, paper or carpet. Same reactor, same feedstock — the patented process control decides which of gasification or pyrolysis you get.

Both options capture the exact numbers shown above for this throughput, process path and yield — useful as a leave-behind after you've dialed in your own site's figures.

One ton of waste rarely produces one revenue line. Illustrative mix for a typical MSW project below — actual splits shift with feedstock, offtake contracts and local tipping rates, and are modeled per project.

Tipping Fees 32%
Power 30%
Biochar 16%
Metals & Glass 12%
Tire Diesel 10%
Tipping fees
Power sales
Biochar / carbon product
Recovered metals & glass
Tire-derived diesel

Carbon credits and environmental credits, where a project qualifies, sit on top of this mix rather than inside it — they depend on registry approval, local policy and market pricing, so we keep them out of the core modeled split above. Full list of possible streams below.

ALL POSSIBLE REVENUE STREAMS

Stream
Status
Notes
Tipping fees
Core
Paid per ton received; the largest and most reliable line in most municipal projects.
Power sales
Core
Net exportable electricity after parasitic load, sold under a grid or offtake agreement.
Biochar / carbon product
Core
Sold as soil amendment, filtration media or industrial carbon; yield and price vary by feedstock and buyer.
Recovered metals & glass
Core
Pulled on the back end via magnetic and eddy-current separation from mixed MSW streams.
Tire-derived diesel, carbon black & steel wire
Core
Three sellable streams from the dedicated tire-to-diesel pyrolysis line, where a project includes tire feedstock.
Carbon credits / offsets
Upside
Requires registry methodology approval and verification; priced by carbon markets, not guaranteed for every project.
Landfill-diversion / environmental credits
Upside
Where local policy rewards diverting waste from landfill; availability and value are jurisdiction-specific.
Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs)
Upside
Where the project and grid market qualify; traded separately from the underlying power sale.
Avoided disposal / hauling cost
Upside
A cost saved rather than revenue earned, but often material for a municipality or generator's total economics.
Third-party waste intake (regional hub)
Upside
Additional tipping revenue from surrounding sites once a facility has spare throughput capacity.

Core streams are what we model into a project's base case. Upside streams are real but project-dependent — we quantify them once we know the site, feedstock and local policy. Request your project's real numbers →

Based on our engineered 6.8–9.1× airspace-extension range and 90–95% mass reduction, demonstrated across our landfill remediation work.

How urgent is this by region?

Landfill tipping fees are the clearest public signal of how tight regional airspace has gotten — scarcer capacity and stricter permitting push fees up. 2024 national average vs. the highest- and lowest-fee regions:

Northeast
$80.67/ton
Pacific
$72.88/ton
National avg.
$62.28/ton
South Central
$44.87/ton
