# Biomass Controls PBC

> Biomass Controls PBC is a Public Benefit Corporation in Woodstock, Connecticut that builds the Biogenic Refinery — a decentralized pyrolysis platform for high-moisture biogenic and selected organic feedstocks (manures, biosolids, septage, food waste, agricultural residues, fibers). Its three outputs are pathogen-inactivated biochar, recoverable thermal energy, and an audit-grade operating record captured by the KELV°N® data platform. Systems are sized by energy balance rather than a generic tons-per-day rating; feedstock acceptance, carbon-credit eligibility, and contaminant treatment are all project-specific and determined by characterization, permitting, and intended end use.

## Core pages

- [The Biogenic Refinery](https://biomasscontrols.com/biogenic-refinery/): What the equipment is, how oxygen-limited pyrolysis differs from incineration, and the three outputs it produces. Start here to understand the product.
- [How we size](https://biomasscontrols.com/how-we-size/): The energy-balance method used to size a system — the equation, the feedstock inputs required, how the model maps to hardware, and when multi-unit deployment applies. Explains why capacity is not quoted as tons per day.
- [Feedstocks](https://biomasscontrols.com/feedstocks/): The qualification reference — what the Biogenic Refinery processes, what is tested (moisture, ash, calorific value, contaminants), what is excluded, and how feedstocks map to EU RED III Annex IX. Acceptance is conditional and project-specific.
- [KELV°N data platform](https://biomasscontrols.com/kelvn-data-platform/): The operating-record and IoT layer behind every system — run states, KPIs, faults, operator procedures, offline uploads, and exportable records for operators, owners, regulators, and carbon-credit verifiers. Not a bolt-on dashboard.
- [Carbon removal frameworks](https://biomasscontrols.com/carbon-removal-frameworks/): The documentation chain — what the major regulatory, voluntary, and corporate-disclosure frameworks require, and what the equipment, the KELV°N record, and a peer-reviewed LCA together produce against each. Biomass Controls supplies documentation; certification decisions rest with registries and certification bodies.

## Evidence and company

- [Field record](https://biomasscontrols.com/field-record/): The deployments behind the operating dataset, across multiple continents, and the peer-reviewed publications that document them.
- [Patents](https://biomasscontrols.com/patents/): The portfolio protecting variable-feedstock handling, catalytic emissions control without a thermal oxidizer, integrated heat recovery, and clinker management.
- [About](https://biomasscontrols.com/about/): The categories of problems customers bring, what they do with the Biogenic Refinery, and the verifiable basis behind the engineering claims. Public Benefit Corporation, Woodstock, Connecticut.
- [FAQ](https://biomasscontrols.com/faq/): Consolidated questions and answers from across the site — equipment, feedstocks, sizing, KELV°N, carbon-removal frameworks, field record, patents, and the inquiry process. The best single source for direct answers to common buyer, regulator, and verifier questions.

## Contact

- [Inquiry](https://biomasscontrols.com/inquiry/): Start a project conversation. Sending feedstock, site, and intended end-use details lets the first reply be a sizing-relevant response rather than a brochure restatement.

## Notes

- Capacity is sized by energy balance (hourly feedstock energy minus water removal, biochar retained energy, system demand, and thermal losses), not by a generic tons-per-day figure.
- Terminology used across the site: "pathogen-inactivated" (not "pathogen-free"), "recoverable thermal energy," "verifiable operating record," "qualified feedstock," "project-specific scoping."
- Contaminants such as PFAS, heavy metals, and halogens are evaluated case-by-case through characterization, emissions review, and end-use review — not claimed as universally destroyed.
