Easy-to-use low carbon fuel for hard-to-decarbonize industries

CoalSwitch® has been proven to be co-fired with coal and performs as well, but also dramatically reduces emissions and pollution

  • Higher heating value than current white pellet production
  • Proven hydrophobic qualities
  • Handles and burns much like coal only cleaner

 

 

Using Low Waste Residual Wood

Low value waste residual wood reduces emissions by 99% as compared with coal consumption.

Drop-in Compatibility with no CapEx

CoalSwitch® does not require modification of existing boilers and can be blended in nearly any ratio, helping to extend the useful life of existing assets by reducing emissions.

 

Reduces harmful, regulated pollutants and toxic waste

In co-firing with coal, CoalSwitch® reduces nitrogen dioxide by 20%, sulfur dioxide by 60% and ash by more than 75%*

  • Calorific Value

    10,072 BTU/lb

  • ASH (%)

    2.76

  • Grindability

    YES

  • Sulphur (%)

    0.01

  • Fixed Carbon (%)

CoalSwitch® is fully sustainable throughout its lifecycle

  • FORESTRY

    We utilize residual product that would otherwise rot on the forest floor

  • PROCESS

    Our plant takes the waste product and generates CoalSwitch® pellets

  • ENERGY

    The energy created by using CoalSwitch® pellets replaces energy created by fossil fuels
