Basically, every by-product generated from human consumption has value for another. We believe in thinking differently about the use of consumption generated by-products.The way we think differently about by-products is by analyzing them under every possible angle to find innovative and sustainable uses for them.Pyrolysis happens to make great use of those hard to re-use by-products. We specifically support companies in the thinking and implementation of their pyrolysis project and help define uses for their new products (e.g. biochar, biooil, heat, gases). Pyrolytic projects are good candidates for circular economy and industrial symbiosis.Whether you are a residue generator or transformer, a pyrolysis or torrefaction supplier or a biochar (char) user, GECA offers you a unique expertise combined with a worldwide network of contacts to optimize your operations and profitability.Possible uses of biochar are numerous: replacement of coal, oil, activated carbon, peat, carbon sequestration, plant growth, restoration of degraded sites, water treatment, etc. You need to find the perfect biochar, break into different markets with your biochar related product?GECA is more than 25 years of experience in the environment, waste transformation, soil and water management, and the development of sustainable and profitable products from biochar and pyrolysis.
