The Story Behind the Machine

I can clean drinking water myself. I can recycle sewage myself. I can raise food myself. I can generate electricity using solar myself. The only thing I couldn't do was get rid of garbage responsibly myself—until now.

After building Upverter and scaling factory operations at SRTX, I turned my attention to this problem. Drawing on my background in factory design, automation, and engineering, I developed a compact flash pyrolysis system that transforms household waste into usable bio-diesel fuel—right in your backyard.

This isn't just about waste management—it's about true self-sufficiency, eliminating garbage truck fees, and turning a costly problem into a valuable resource.

"The best way to predict the future is to create it. This machine represents a future where waste becomes a resource, not a burden."

— Zak Homuth, Founder

How It Works

Four simple steps transform your waste into clean, usable bio-diesel fuel.

1
1

Flash Pyrolysis

Waste is rapidly heated to 1200°C in an oxygen-free environment, breaking down complex molecules into simpler compounds.

2
2

Vapor Cooling

Hot vapors are quickly cooled to condense them into liquid form, preserving valuable hydrocarbon chains.

3
3

Fractional Distillation

Liquids are separated by boiling point into light, medium (bio-diesel), and heavy fractions.

4
4

Collection & Storage

Bio-diesel (medium fraction) is collected and ready for use in diesel engines. Residual carbon can be used as biochar.

Join the revolution against wasteful waste management

Every ton of waste you convert saves emissions equivalent to taking a car off the road for 6 months.
