BC Bugwood Envirochem Services Inc. transport cost for pellets, transporting unprocessed logs appears to be the cheaper option. (Note that this cost could be reduced if the hauling company can take a load on the return trip.)

Note that chipping would only take place AFTER transportation to the coal plant, as the density of trees is higher than that of chips. ** Not de-barked, hence same HHV as wood feedstock. *** Salaries, O&M, utilities, plus capital cost, amortized over 10 years at 10% interest.

The left bars show the ROI achieved at a feedstock cost of $68.55/bdt, and the right ones show the ROI achieved at a harvesting cost of $106/bdt. The ROI deemed necessary to attract private investment is 10%. Processes with an ROI below 10% would require an incentive (or feedstocks at a reduced cost) to become economically viable. At the assumed plant sizes, several technologies can achieve the required ROI at the lower feedstock cost. However, especially the results for ethanol and methanol production (based on the Indirect Fluidized Gasification and hydrogen process options) are still preliminary and would need to be confirmed through technology demonstration. At the higher feedstock cost, only methanol with hydrogen enrichment and off-grid CHP seem to be able to generate the required return, with ethanol coming close at 7% ROI. However, there are a few remote (off-grid) communities in the BC Interior (i.e., the bugwood application in off-grid systems is not likely to be implemented in many places). Briquettes and on-grid CHP can achieve and ROI of around zero percent at the high feedstock cost (-0.7% for CHP), but economics are insufficient to attract private investment.

Infinity Supercritical CO2 10 Liter Extractor Design and Worldwide Rights: The Infinity Supercritical 10L CO2 extractor is for botanical oil extraction, which is rich in terpenes and can produce shelf ready full spectrum oil. With over 5 years of development, this industry leader mature extractor machine has been sold since 2015 and is part of many profitable businesses. The process can also be used for electrowinning, e-waste recycling, and lithium battery recycling, gold mining electronic wastes, precious metals. CO2 can also be used in a reverse fuel cell with nafion to make a gas-to-liquids fuel, such as methanol, ethanol and butanol or ethylene. Supercritical CO2 has also been used for treating nafion to make it more effective catalyst. This NFT is for the purchase of worldwide rights which includes the design. More Info
