Numerous agricultural and forestry byproducts have been evaluated as pyrolysis feedstocks (see Table 2 for 50 examples), but it appears that no one has examined the potential benefit of using urban yard waste as the feed stock. This is a mistake! The improved agricultural productivity alone may make yard waste carbonization financially viable. The waste management opportunities alone may make yard waste carbonization financially viable. The CO2 sequestering and byproduct production (i.e. bitumen) provide additional value and convert an even higher portion of the waste into useful products. Taken together, the merits of yard waste carbonization present exciting new opportunities in solid waste management, agriculture and transportation materials research.
