Example Energy Output Options
Model “30” Reactor Unit
Transportation Fuels
- Dimethyl Ether (propane substitute) - Methanol - Ethanol
Power Generation
D4 Generated Syngas
5
The Science
Process: Proprietary technology built upon the proven sciences of pyrolysis (devolatization in an inert atmosphere) and hydropyrolysis (devolatization in a hydrogen-rich atmosphere).
Output - Gas: Syngas (600 - 750 Btu). Used for power production or used directly for industrial purposes.
Output - Carbon: Can be sold for soil amendments, fuel sources, fillers for rubber, plastic applications, filtration, and road construction additives.
Emissions – Equal to natural gas but no emissions in the conversion from waste to gas.

D4 Energy – Mobile/Modular WtE Solutions
Mobile (300 KW) Three Trailer System 8 ton/day Unit
Fixed – Minimum Net 1.25MW (Net to Grid) Nominal 30 ton/day Unit

D4 Energy – Gas Enhancement Module (GEM)
The D4 Energy’s Gas Enhancement Module (GEM) is a specialty designed system that takes “produced gas”, in its raw state, containing short chain hydrocarbons (C1-C3), hydrogen, condensable oils and tars generally described as long chain hydrocarbons, CO (carbon monoxide) and CO2 (carbon dioxide) and produces a clean synthetic gas
which can produce a broad range of energy products.

D4 Energy – Feed Stock Squisher (FSSQ)
The D4 Energy’s Feed Stock Squisher (FSSQ) is a specialty
designed technology that takes MSW, biomass and other
feedstocks and reduces their moisture content from as high as 80% down to a nominal 2% – 4%.
Dried & Densified MSW can be “granulated” (left)
or “extruded” (right)

Modular Design – 30-45 tons per day 1.25 – 2.0 MW net dispatchable

Multi-Module Installation ~450 metric tons per day of processible feedstock
Sample 10 node (12.5MW) system

Superior WtE Technology
Benefit Description
High waste stream conversion rates Approximately 80% of feedstock is converted to syngas and 20% to carbon
Medium BTU values D4 units produce on average 600 to 750 BTU gas1
Efficient processing The D4 system’s parasitic load is approximately 10-15%.
Minimal emissions D4 units operate as a closed loop systems that create almost no emissions in
processing of the feedstock
Modularity and scalability Systems start as small as 1.25 MW (30 tons/day) and can grow as large as 40 MW
(1,000 tons/day)
Lower operating costs Modular configuration, simple design, and operating at 1 bar
Flexible feedstocks Accepts a wide variety of waste streams and biomass
Greenhouse gas reduction Reduces landfill methane and reliance upon fossil fuels
Fast installation Can be assembled and in production in about four weeks after delivery to customer
site
Portability Can be disassembled and moved to other sites
1Exact BTU rating of produced gas depends on the type of feedstock
The Company’s proprietary technology uses a unique combination of pyrolysis and hydropyrolysis that subjects the feedstock to temperatures in excess of 1,600F (850C) in an all gas environment. Unlike competing technologies, the system does not involve combustion that produces toxic emissions.
12
Cost Competitive Solution
On a per MW basis, the Company’s system is priced approximately 52% less than the average cost of competing WtE solutions.
When compared to other gasification suppliers, on a per MW basis, the Company’s system is priced approximately 55% less.
