GRO-FUEL™ — Energy Pellets & a Pathway to SAF

GRO-FUEL™ — Energy Pellets & a Pathway to SAF

GRO-FUEL™ transforms grasses and invasive vegetation into hydrophobic black pellets that behave like a green alternative to coal—high energy density, easy to grind, moisture-resistant, and ideal for co-firing or dedicated combustion in industrial boilers. Our continuous microwave torrefaction heats biomass from the inside out for tight temperature control, improved handling, and lower ash and sulfur compared to fossil fuels, while enclosed off-gas capture and heat recovery enable carbon-negative operations when paired with biochar. The same platform opens a clear route to sustainable aviation fuel: catalytic fast-pyrolysis oils that can be hydroprocessed into ASTM-compliant blendstocks, or synthesis gas that feeds Fischer–Tropsch refining. With feedstock contracting, MRV, and certification-ready QA/QC built in, GRO-FUEL™ lets energy users decarbonize heat today and establish credible SAF supply tomorrow—sourced from problem biomass, not prime cropland.
