The system does not use a cooling tower and does not emit steam to the atmosphere. The Recovery 2.0 process converts traditional emissions into valorized <a href="https://www.waste.net/central_resource_evolution.html#material_recovery_yields">products</a> as a sustainable resource to be utilized throughout the circular economy. <br> <br> While NOT attempting to address the issues of grid scale energy storage, we find ourselves focusing on the challenges of intermittent off hour operating when choosing renewables as a primary <a href="https://www.waste.net/2/hybrid.html#regenerative_power-cycle">energy source</a>. <br> <br> In an effort to minimize or eliminate undesirable emissions, the operations are engineered with flexible options to accommodate multiple energy source inputs that include intermittent storage and a green choice of multi-stage processes that accommodate interchangeable <a href="https://www.waste.net/2/oxidation_reaction.html#oxidation_rates">energy</a> streams. <br> By utilizing a combination of novel and passive approaches that are traditionally deemed as less efficient or not energy dense, we may be able to achieve neutral emission goals with <a href="https://www.waste.net/recovery.html#regeneration">Short Cycle Regeneration</a> methods. <br> <br> By implementing an innovative approach to Waste Recovery operations, the <a href="https://www.waste.net/2/energy.html#muli_stage">compound</a> effect of shuffling the energy stack may result in the development of one of the worlds most effective sustainability systems. <br> <br> The design of the Recovery 2.0 process pathways provide maximum flexibility in the options for choosing or adapting to changing incoming raw feedstocks, product outputs and process energy sources as market conditions dictate. <br> <br> The Recovery 2.0 approach is designed to encourage competitive technology vendor innovation.

This includes all types of food waste, green organic wastes and sludges, all wood and paper products, plastics, rubber and textiles. The Recovery 2.0 approach regenerates complex waste materials back into the simple elemental building blocks in order to use waste as a resource to capture value and strategic materials. <br> The recovered elemental building blocks are used to reconstruct the circular resources that are required to build the future. Since the nature of the original source of the waste feedstocks are carbon or hydrocarbon based, the reality is that many of the end products produced from a resource recovery process are therefore carbon or hydrocarbon based. <br> <br> The <a href="https://www.waste.net/carbon.html"> <font color="FF0000"><B>Recovery</b></font></a> of carbon provides the opportunity to produce any number of Integrated Carbon <a href="https://www.waste.net/carbon.html#product"> <font color="FF0000"><B>Products</b></font></a> that include Electrolytic Carbon, Filtration Media, Carbon Powders, and a wide range of fabricated Carbon, Graphite and Graphene products. <br> One of the most exciting untapped potentials is the production of clean carbon fuels that may be a direct green substitute for coal. The adoption of closed loop mass balance technologies, that eliminate combustion emissions to the atmosphere, may provide a virtually unlimited use case for any volume of carbon on a regenerating cycle. <br> <br> Many projects are currently focused on the de-fossilization of the carbon cycle. <br> <a name="sequestration"></a> <br> The Recovery 2.0 efforts are largely centered around, and result in, the sequestration of CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) through the conversion into carbon & carbon products. <br> This approach is classified in three main areas <br> 1.) The regeneration and productive use of carbon and carbon products <br> 2.) The conversion of CO2 into carbon based chemicals and fuels <br> 3.) The beneficial use of CO2 as an industrial working medium in the form of fluids (gas//liquid) or as a solid. </p> </div> <div class="box"> <hr width="50%" color="#cccccc"> </div> <a name="combustion_free"></a> <div class="box"> <center> <font size="6"> <b>Combustion Emissions</b> </font> <br> & <br> <font size="5"> <b>Combustion Free Concepts</b> </font> </center> </div> <div class="box"> <p> Combustion free concepts related to the resource recovery industry are largely focused around the avoidance of undesired <a href="https://www.waste.net/2/#common_emissions">emissions</a>. <br> It is also commonly referred to as <b>Emission Free Combustion</b>. <br> <br> Performing a life cycle assessment on any thermal reduction process requires the review of at least three main criteria. The emissions related to the <a href="https://www.waste.net/2/#dtr">direct thermal reduction</a> process, the emissions surrounding the primary <a href="https://www.waste.net/2/#source">energy sources</a> and the emissions derived from the use of the <a href="https://www.waste.net/2/#end_products">end products</a> that are produced. <br> <a name="common_emissions"></a> <br> The primary issue of <a href="https://wizz.com/flash/combustion.html">Combustion</a> is mainly the concern surrounding the emission of undesirable flue gases and the reduction or elimination of C02 carbon footprint. <br> Common emissions include such items as Carbon Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide, Dioxins and Furans and sulphur and nitrogen derivatives (SOX & NOX) and a variety of other hazardous, toxic or undesirable elements. <br> <a name="dtr"></a> <br> <B>Direct Thermal Reduction</B> <br> In the <a href="https://www.waste.net/2/reduction.html">Thermal Reduction</a> process an isolated retort chamber may be used to separate the feedstocks from the primary heat source in a controlled environment to insure no combustion of the processed feedstocks occur. <br> The vaporization of waste materials in the absence of combustion avoids the production of undesirable combustion byproducts. A closed pipeline that controls the flow of the thermal vapors that operates on a <a href="https://www.waste.net/2/#mass_balance">Mass Balance</a> Equilibrium recovery basis may be considered as a Combustion Free Concept. <br> <br> Any thermal reduction or combustion process that releases flue gas emissions into the atmospheric environment is not considered as a Combustion Free Concept. This incudes any incineration, gasification or pyrolysis process that does not operate as a closed system that avoids emissions. These emissions may be considered Scope 1 Emissions, which are direct emissions that are owned or controlled by a company.<br> <a name="source"></a> <br> <B>Energy Sources</B> <br> In the case where the thermal reduction reaction chamber is separate from the primary energy source, an assessment of the heat source must be performed. <br> Identifying the source of heat that drives the thermal reduction process and clearly establishing if combustion is a component in that process. In the event that combustion is utilized in the energy generation stage a clear certification of the combustion emission management process may be required. These emissions may be considered Scope 2 Emissions, emissions that are caused when generating energy. <br> <a name="end_products"></a> <br> <B>End Product Uses</B> <br> When reviewing the end product outputs produced from the thermal waste reduction process, a clear designation of the intended uses of those products must be established. If the output products are declared as combustion based fuels, the derivative emissions from those products must be considered. <br> <br> When these products are consumed or combusted, any emissions that are released into the atmosphere must be taken into account. These emissions may be considered Scope 3 Emissions.
