Energy Transition is The Carbon Revolution®

Circon’s projects transform and repurpose waste plastics, end-of-life tires, municipal, and industrial solid waste providing clean and abundant low-carbon fuels and renewable energy ensuring valuable resources are not squandered but reintegrated into the energy value chain. 

Circon’s projects transform and repurpose waste plastics, end-of-life tires, municipal, and industrial solid waste providing clean and abundant low-carbon fuels and renewable energy ensuring valuable resources are not squandered but reintegrated into the energy value chain. 

 

There are currently more capital commitments earmarked for Energy Transition than for any other initiative in global history and, economically and environmentally, the consequences for missing the mark are staggering.

 


Circular Economy

Circular Economy

What is a Circular Economy?

A true circular economy is an innovative approach to resource management that challenges the traditional "take-make-dispose" linear model by keeping products, materials, and resources in a continuous cycle of use, regeneration and reutilization. This sustainable framework minimizes waste and  maximizes the value of resources while reducing environmental impact.
 


Key Tenets of the Circular Economy

  1. Resource Efficiency: Our projects maximize the use of resources by reducing waste and minimizing resource extraction through recycling, reuse, and remanufacturing. Partnering with existing recycling processes is a crucial strategy for addressing global environmental challenges posed by waste and promoting sustainable resource management.
  2. Waste Diversion and Reduction: By diverting waste away from landfills and incineration, we reduce the environmental impact of waste disposal, conserve natural resources and minimize the release of harmful greenhouse gases and pollutants associated with waste management.
  3. Systemic Thinking: Our projects embrace a holistic approach that considers the entire lifecycle of products and materials including their environmental and social impacts.
  4. Collaboration: We encourage cooperation among businesses, governments, and consumers to particpate in the circular economy ecosystem to promote sustainable practices and innovation.

Co-Products of Our Circular Economy

Co-Products of Our Circular Economy

Renewable Energy 

Circon produced LCF synthetic gas and LCF diesel coproducts are utilized to generate renewable electricity through traditional commercial-off-the-shelf turbines.

  • Baseload capacity
  • High efficiency and low emissions
  • Dispatchable 24/7/365
  • Combined Cycle and Cogeneration
  • Behind-the-Meter Optionality

Low-Carbon Fuels ("LCF")

One of the major co-products resulting from Circon’s process is low-carbon synthetic gas and liquid fuels.  These clean fuels can be utilized immediately post process for electricity production or can be traditionally distilled into high quality fuel fractions for storage and fuel offtakes.

Low-Carbon Fuels 

  • LCF synthetic gas
  • LCF diesel
  • Low-Carbon Base Stocks for Blending

 

Transportation Fuels

  • Maritime ISO compliant shipping fuels
  • Sustainable aviation fuels (SAF)

Organic Bio-Supplements

Organic based feedstocks (like wood, agriculture biomass, storm debris, etc.) generate co-products that increase soil water holding capacity and nutrient transfer, capture nutrients in stormwater, and reduce moisture and ammonia in livestock production. Additionally, liquid wood vinegar provides organic crop treatments that replace traditional herbicide and pesticide chemicals.

  • Soil Remediation and Supplements
  • Wood Vinegar and Derivatives

Renewable Supply Chain Resources

C0-products serve as direct replacements for virgin resource materials in the industrial supply chain.  This completes the “recycling chain” reducing the dependence on coal, carbon black, and single-use plastics and significantly reduces emissions from resource mining and metallurgy.

  • Recovered Carbon Black (rCB)
  • Biocarbon – for Metallurgy
  • Recycled Plastic Pellets
  • Recycled Steel

Environmental and Carbon Credits

Circon’s circular economy business model produces a significantly negative CO2e life cycle analysis compliant to UN Core Carbon Principles (“CCP”) resulting in verified carbon and environmental credits through approved methodologies traded in the global markets and certified to GAAP and IFRS reporting standards.

  • CO2e Offsets
  • Renewable Energy Credits
  • Carbon Sequestration
  • Environmental Credits
