Summary

Charm Industrial converts biomass residues (for example, corn stover, forestry residues) into bio-oil by heating the biomass quickly to very high temperatures. Charm uses woody or cellulosic residues in their pyrolysis and ensures that any emissions associated with growth or harvesting of this biomass are accounted for. This means waste biomass that would have otherwise decomposed is a preferred feedstock. The resulting bio-oil is low in energy content, but high in carbon content, and can be injected underground into geological storage reservoirs such as depleted oil & gas reservoirs, saline aquifers and salt caverns regulated by the US EPA. It is a highly viscous liquid which is denser than the surrounding formation fluid, and so will sink in the reservoir and risk of buoyancy/upward migration is low. The bio-oil polymerizes (solidifies) on an expected timescale between 2–20 years, rendering it effectively immobile within the subsurface and therefore durable on geological timescales.

Projects

Range & Plains BiocharCharm co-produces bio-oil and biochar at our pyrolysis facility in Fort Lupton, CO from non-merchantable woody biomass sourced from government-funded wildfire mitigation/management projects. Charm procures pyrolysis bio-oil produced by AE Cote-Nord Canada Bioenergy Inc (AECN) from waste material produced by a nearby lumber mill. We transport biochar via truck to various sites where it is sequestered via land application. Charm is in the process of securing agreements for offtake and storage of biochar. The locations of storage sites are presently unknown. Charm will report storage site locations and boundaries upon successful execution of an offtake agreement.

Charm Kansas Bio-oil Geologic StorageCharm procures pyrolysis bio-oil produced by AECN, from waste material produced by a nearby lumber mill. A combination of rail and truck is used to transport the bio-oil to a pre-processing site in Kansas where it is treated to fit the local regulatory requirements for injection, before being trucked to a permitted slurry injection well site in Hutchinson, Kansas for sequestration underground.
