Implementing
sustainable solutions

We turn emissions challenges in to opportunities: by using low value biomass residues to create essential resources for biofuel production, we’re driving industries and transportation towards a carbon neutral future.

Bio-waste to bio-oil:
Renewable resource revolution

The Cat-HTR™ process: from waste to value

We collect low-value forest residues, agricultural residues and bio-genic forms of municipal solid waste. These materials, which would typically be burned or left to decompose, become our raw material for our versatile hydrothermal liquefaction treatment.

From pilot to commercial: scaling success at Chuntoh Ghuna

Our innovation journey began in Somersby, Australia – our first small-scale HTL plant. This success led us to North America’s Chuntoh Ghuna, with the capacity to convert 25,000 dry tonnes of wood residue into 50,000 barrels of bio-oil yearly.

As the world’s largest Cat-HTR™ plant, Chuntoh Ghuna marks a significant leap in commercial biomass to liquids solutions. With potential for fourfold expansion within its existing footprint, it heralds a new era in renewable resource production.
