Sustainable Energy + Carbon Balance 2012 Energy Efficiency Symposium IEEE Buenaventura, Westlake Village, CA Presented by Tom McGrath Founder, Channel Islands BioEnergy Channel Islands BioEnergy

Overview Numbers Eco-system perspective What? BioWaste+BioEnergy Why? Profitable, Efficient, Sustainable Waste and Energy Solutions How? Three (3) Biomass – BioEnergy Subsystems Who? Channel Islands BioEnergy

Numbers Eco-system Perspective 2 o C 0.8 o C o C = 1.6 o C 500 ppm 150 years –> 280ppm to 400ppm 7B 80M –> 16B by 2100 Channel Islands BioEnergy

What? BioWaste+BioEnergy Generate base-load electricity from Biomass Anaerobic Digestion (AD) produces methane Slow Pyrolysis produces syngas Reform methane/syngas to isolate hydrogen for fuel cells Transform BioWaste to Biochar and BioEnergy No hazardous (costly) downstream air, land, or water pollution Tune system for fuel cell electricity Scale for local available waste and electricity need Optimize end-to-end BioStream value Optimize carbon balance  Biochar sequesters carbon in soil Channel Islands BioEnergy

Why? Profitable, Efficient, Sustainable Waste and Energy Solution Generate distributed electrical power Transform local untapped biomass Waste-to-energy asset by generating scalable on-site electricity Improve greenhouse gas balance Beyond standalone BioEnergy deployment Reform Methane and Syngas Boost hydrogen input to fuel cells Refine end-to-end system performance Scale for local needs Channel Islands BioEnergy

How? Three (3) BioWaste-BioEnergy Subsystems 1. Anaerobic Digestion (AD) and Slow Pyrolysis: Configuration 1: AD  Methane only Configuration 2: Slow Pyrolysis  Biochar + Syngas Configuration 3: AD + Slow Pyrolysis  Biochar + Methane + Syngas 2. Gas Reformer: transform Methane and/or Syngas into hydrogen + other useful gases 3. Channel Islands Fuel Cells: directly convert hydrogen into electrical power Channel Islands BioEnergy WGS + PSA Pyrolysis AD Biomass Biochar WGS: Water Gas Shift reactor PSA: Pressure Swing Adsorber Reformer: Fuel Cells

Who? Channel Islands BioEnergy Production costs than half of competition per kWh High energy efficiency % vs % of other waste to energy systems Alkaline fuel cell vs. solid oxide and proton exchange membrane fuel cells -- significant cost savings and reliability boost Easier to maintain in the field, less down-time, increased product life Innovative design, cutting edge fabrication techniques, low parts inventory & local green-tech jobs Channel Islands BioEnergy

Numbers Let’s move in the right direction 2 o C – Livable eco-system 0.8 o C o C = 1.6 o C 500 ppm – Plant carbon to enrich soil 150 years –> 280ppm to 400ppm 7B – Cure waste stream for human community 80M –> 16B by 2100 Channel Islands BioEnergy
