We convert biomass
Sawmills, plantations and agro-processors sit on residues they pay to get rid of. We develop the plants that turn them into products industry already buys.
Biomass residuePyrolysis550–800 °C, no oxygen
BiocarbonMade to spec for soil, metallurgy, construction and filtration.
Carbon removal creditsCertified CO₂ removal, sold on top of the product.
Bio-oilSold as wood vinegar and tar, or upgraded into fuel.
Power and heatRuns the reactor, dries the feedstock, powers the site.
Built with local partners
Project developmentStep 1 of 6 · weeks
Feasibility
A first look at the residue, the volumes and the logistics, under NDA. Teaser, biomass form and logistics review.

Validation
The residue goes to the lab. Real yields go into a first project model, and the economics are confirmed or the project stops.
Step 3 of 6 · 2–4 months
Full design
Site, machines, permits and the full financial model, agreed with the partner in a memorandum of understanding.
Step 4 of 6 · 3–6 months
Capital raise
Investor materials, data room and the financing round for the first machine, through to financial close.
Step 5 of 6 · 6–12 months
Roll-out
Procurement, civil works, installation, commissioning and ramp-up, with the partner's team trained on site.
Step 6 of 6 · 15+ years
Operation
Steady production, remote monitoring and product sales – and the next machines once the first one performs.

Technology
Heat without oxygen
Instead of burning, biomass in a pyrolysis reactor breaks down at 550–800 °C into a solid, a gas and a liquid. The carbon stays locked in the solid.
The right machine for the residue
Continuous systems
For husks, shells and chips, fed without interruption for a constant output.
Add-on modules
Turn surplus gas into power or capture bio-oil where the site and the market justify them.
Measured, not estimated
Digital monitoring follows every tonne from residue to biocarbon. The same data that certifies the carbon shows where the plant can run better: yields, cycle times, moisture and downtime.

Six questions we ask first
Seasonality
Is it there when the plant needs it, or only part of the year?
Annual volume
Is there enough tonnage over the year for the economics to work?
Moisture
Dry enough to skip a dryer? If not, a dryer run on surplus gas can still pay off.
Carbon quality
Ash and fixed carbon decide the quality of the biocarbon, and the markets it can reach.
Competing uses
Who else wants it, and at what price? That sets the real cost of securing it.
Logistics
How far does it travel to the plant? Distance erodes the economics fast.

Carbon credit markets
Revenue only when the biocarbon is stored for good, in soil or long-lived materials.

Bio-oil markets
Captured from the process gas when the bio-oil module is fitted.
01AgricultureWood vinegar as a bio-stimulant, natural pesticide and soil conditioner.
02MaterialsWood tar as a wood preservative and an asphalt or bitumen additive.
03EnergyReformed bio-oil as a substitute for heavy fuel oil in industrial boilers, subject to lab confirmation.04 / 04Self-energyRevenueCost avoidance
Syngas, heat and power
The process gas heats the plant itself; with a heat-to-power module, the surplus becomes electricity.
Process heat
Self-energy: runs the reactor and dries the next batch of residue.
Internal power
Cost avoidance: powers the dryer, the pelletiser and the plant's other systems.
External sale
Revenue: sold to a neighbouring off-taker or exported to the grid.

A residue with no good use today. A local partner who controls it and runs the plant. Enough material to grow from one machine to several. A buyer within reach for the biocarbon.

What you get
A long-term partner on the ground, not a service provider.
Turn a cost into revenue
Residue you pay to burn or haul becomes products and carbon credits.
A partner, not a consultant
We invest alongside you and share the risk. We succeed only when the plant does.
A stake in the plant
You hold shares in the project company that owns and runs the plant.
Heat and power
Surplus energy can dry your products, cut your bills or be sold to the grid.
Fair, simple, shared
You bring
A steady residue stream, land and access for the plant, and the people and hands to run it.
We bring
Origination, due diligence, lab tests, the right technology partner, team training, certification, co-investors, lenders and buyers.
A project company
Built close to the biomass source, with you as a shareholder.

One platform, many plants
PyroSur is not one project. We originate, test and structure a pipeline of biomass plants with one method, one team and one data system. Each plant is its own project company, with PyroSur as a shareholder.

Not a bet on one market
We are a biomass conversion company first. Carbon credits add value, but the case does not rest on them.
Several revenue lines
Biocarbon, carbon credits, bio-oil and power from the same tonne, sold to different buyers.
Real assets
Plants close to the residue, run by teams who already handle it every day.
Modular growth
One machine first. More follow once it performs, so capital follows proof.
Measured from day one
Machine data and digital monitoring give investors the numbers the auditors see.
Pick the project, or the platform
A
Invest in a project
Equity or debt in one project company, or a small cluster by country. Choose by geography, stage and risk appetite.
B
Invest in the platform
Exposure to PyroSur's stakes across the whole pipeline, every new plant included.
What we mean by ready
A project reaches investors only once it ticks every box.
- Residue secured under contract or letter of intent
- Site identified and permits mapped
- Local operator named and committed
- Technology confirmed on lab results
- Carbon methodology scoped with a standard
- Fundable within 12–18 months
