Upgrading Biomass into [Renewable Carbon]

Through thermal upgrading, woody biomass is transformed into higher-value carbon products with improved energy density, stability, and performance—enabling new applications across fuels, industry, and carbon solutions.

Biocarbon & Thermal Upgrading

Woody biomass is increasingly being upgraded into even higher-value renewable carbon products. Thermal upgrading technologies, including torrefaction and steam treatment, improve energy density, stability, and performance characteristics.

Upgraded biomass products support a range of applications, including:

Sustainable aviation fuel and maritime fuels.

Renewable heat for steel, cement, lime, and other high-temperature industrial processes.

Firm, dispatchable energy for data centers and behind-the-meter power systems.

Carbon capture and storage pathways, including bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS).

Bio-based materials and chemicals that displace fossil-derived inputs.

This evolution reflects the industry’s shift from a single end use to a flexible renewable carbon platform.
