Our Technology

NULIFE’s patented Hydrothermal Liquefaction (HTL) technology is a continuous thermal-chemical process that breaks down and liquifies organic materials. The reaction occurs under high pressure and temperature, using water as a catalyst to reform the organic materials into long chain hydrocarbons of renewable crude oil and char. It recreates how oil was formed on earth.

1. PFAS (Per-and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances) are a class of about 9,000 compounds used to make products: heat, water, and stain resistant. Known as “forever chemicals” because they don’t naturally break down, they have been linked to cancer, thyroid disruption, liver problems, birth defects, immunosuppression and more.  
2. Dozens of industries use PFAS in thousands of consumer products, and often discharge the chemicals into the nation’s sewer system. 

NULIFE’s primary feedstock focus is on high moisture industrial wastes. We can accept a wide range of feedstocks from agricultural waste from food processors, sewage sludge, pulp and paper waste residuals, and more. Our modular, scalable systems are designed to be easily adoptable by waste generators​, and does not require our customers to pay a “green premium”.
