LOCOAL Launches Innovative Production Unit in Houston to Transform Wood Waste into Sustainable Resources

LOCOAL, a leader in sustainability innovation, has officially opened its first production unit in Houston, Texas, introducing a groundbreaking approach to waste management and renewable energy production. This facility utilizes the company's proprietary RAINMAKER™ technology to convert wood waste into Biochar, Bioliquids, and clean-burning Biogas, products that promise to revolutionize soil health, renewable energy, and carbon credit generation.

The significance of this development cannot be overstated. By transforming wood waste into valuable resources, LOCOAL not only addresses the pressing issue of waste diversion but also contributes to the reduction of carbon emissions. The Houston unit employs the AFTERBURN™ technology, a self-sustaining system that powers the production process with the very biogas it produces, showcasing a scalable model for environmental sustainability.

Impact on agriculture is another critical aspect of LOCOAL's initiative. Biochar, one of the byproducts of the RAINMAKER™ technology, has been shown to improve soil health and increase crop yields, offering a boon to local farmers, including pecan producers in Texas. Furthermore, the generation of measurable carbon credits through IMPCT.AI™ tracking provides an additional layer of environmental and economic benefit, aligning with global efforts to combat climate change.

LOCOAL's expansion into Houston is a testament to the city's reputation as a hub for innovation and hard work. As Miles Murray, LOCOAL Co-Founder, puts it, the city's dynamic environment is the perfect backdrop for turning waste into opportunity. This initiative not only underscores the potential for sustainable business practices but also sets a precedent for how industries can contribute to a circular economy.
