The key to unlocking a sustainable future lies in replacing fossil fuels and harmful substances with biodegradable and eco-friendly alternatives. Restoration Bioproducts focuses on delivering this key of sustainability to different industries so they can become a beacon of progress.
“Restoration Bioproducts was created to mitigate climate change by sequestering carbon in the soil as biochar while producing clean energy from agricultural waste. We develop pyrolysis-based projects to refine biomass into higher-value products that are efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly,” says Jeff Waldon, managing partner at Restoration Bioproducts.
The Virginia-based, private-sector energy conservation company began as a co-venture between Langseth Engineering, a bioenergy-focused firm based in Lynchburg, VA, and FDC Enterprises, a biomass production company operating all over the Eastern U.S. Combining their expertise, the partners are unveiling the immense potential of biochar and facilitating a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.
‘Rooted in the past, growing for the future’ perfectly encapsulates Restoration Bioproducts’ competitive edge in the biochar industry. The use of biochar as a sustainable solution for improving soil health and reducing greenhouse gas emissions draws on ancient agricultural practices, while its development of innovative biochar production technologies demonstrates its commitment to modern technology and innovation. A focus on using locally-sourced and sustainable biomass feedstock for its biochar production sets Restoration Bioproducts apart from other companies in the biochar space.
The high-quality biochar solves many modern agricultural problems. Its products and services bring out the innovative potential of biochar and syngas to enhance carbon sequestration and soil productivity, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions compared to raw amendments of organic wastes and plant residues.
This breakthrough technology in carbon removal turns biomass waste into stable biochar and syngas that do not decompose or re-enter the atmosphere for years. It does this by taking low-value biomass and agricultural and forestry waste, which is carefully heated at a high temperature in the absence of oxygen. This process results in biochar and syngas (the volatiles in the biomass), which can either be burned to run the system, produce power, or condensed to produce bio-oil and wood vinegar.
Restoration Bioproducts stands ready to serve the agriculture market in the Mid- Atlantic States, embarking on innovative projects that span across the West Coast. Recently, it broke ground for its new facility in Waverly, the first of its kind in the entire Commonwealth. It will invest $6.5 million in the site over the next three years, create nine high-paying jobs, and purchase 25,000 tons of Virginia-grown wood products.
The team behind Restoration Bioproducts plays a crucial role in its accomplishments, carrying the technical expertise and business acumen to succeed in the competitive biochar industry. Waldon is an advisor for land management, carbon, biomass energy, timber, and wildlife clients throughout the U.S. Andy Raines has a wealth of experience in the financial services industry, focusing on the field operations of retail and wholesale financial product distribution. Fred Circle runs FDC Enterprises, Inc. (FDCE), one of the largest providers of conservation planting services in the U.S. Kyle Langseth, Vice President of Sustainable Energy for Langseth Engineering, has managed many projects, including mechanical and structural design, energy efficiency, and biochar utilization. This diverse expertise and experience allow Restoration Bioproducts to approach the biochar space from a multidisciplinary perspective, integrating knowledge and insights from various fields to create effective solutions.
Restoration Bioproducts will continue to expand its knowledge and expertise, working with new companies and products to explore biochar’s expanding benefits and provide a sustainable solution for waste management, support an agricultural revolution, and alter the future of climate change.
