The technology for processing organic materials involves producing a carbon, like a charcoal, under controlled conditions in a kiln. A kiln is also referred to as a carbonization unit. The carbonization units used are completely automated and the gases used during the burning process are harvested and recycled. The recycled gases then become a source of energy with further fires the kiln. The carbonization unit is then considered to be an almost self-sustaining piece of equipment. The processing therefore uses very little new energy and during the burning process, all of the surplus energy can be converted into electricity.

The plant that processes the organic materials, can be an asset to the community in which it is located by providing jobs and giving farmers more resources for income. In continuing with the self-sustaining theme, the electricity that is harvested can be channeled into a grid and used to provide the power the other equipment in the plant. A plant produces no noise pollution or ground pollution. Any smoke that is produced is captured in what we call scrubbers, which acts as a filter, to keep contaminants out of the air and environment in general.

Being able to use waste products as a renewable source of materials and energies benefits the environment firstly by not adding pollution into the air, ground and water; and secondly, the process negates the need to cut down trees, mining the earth for resources, and avoiding the need for using chemicals on a regular basis.

The products that are produced are environmentally and people-friendly and have such a variety of uses in domestic and industrial settings. Additionally, because the process uses recycled resources to product the products, the cost of the resulting products are extremely competitively priced.
Creating and maintaining a greener, more sustainable environment is a key to our own self-preservation. Advancing technologies are continuing to be researched and recycling organic materials into other products is likely to expand greatly. Processing organic materials to produce carbon is a science all of its own.
