This innovative technology results in simultaneous production of char / charcoal as well as a high quality Combustible gas that could be used for power generation or for a variety of thermal applications. 

• The charcoal yield is of the order of about 25% of biomass by weight. 
• The process totally eliminates any adverse environmental impact as no harmful vapours or particulates are released into the environment.
• The overall energy efficiencies are extremely high (of the order of 90%) and thus, the biomass resource is almost fully utilized and converted to very high quality energy streams.
• Most types of biomass can be used as feedstock with wide range of moisture contents acceptable to the systems. 
• The final particle size of char / charcoal is directly related to feed size and the system allows for a wide range of particle sizes to be used with char / charcoal output also being controllable as per the final requirement.
