The Maine Kiln is the smart choice for managing your organic waste because it puts you in the driver's seat:
- Convenient: The Maine Kiln's smart size makes it easily portable, so you bring it to the waste instead of paying to have your waste hauled.
- Savings: Paying to have your organic waste hauled away is expensive. Storing it on-site can result in odors and emissions violations, and takes land out of productive use. The Maine Kiln pays for itself by avoiding those hassles.
- Time: You operate your portable Maine Kiln on your schedule, when it's convenient for you and off the grid. No waiting around, no scheduling, no missed pick-ups.
- Quality: As the name indicates, you're getting a "Made in Maine" product, which means Quality and Durability are built in.

The Maine Kiln provides waste management solutions that divert organic waste from landfills and are easily scalable.
- Volume: The Maine Kiln reduces waste volume by about two-thirds.
- Emissions: The Maine Kiln uses 1200F pyrolysis, which burns off gases completely to minimize emissions.
- Fuel: The Maine Kiln can limit its fossil fuel usage by burning the syngas created as a by-product of operation.
- Sequestering: Using your Maine Kiln will sequester carbon for hundreds of years in your community.
The Maine Kiln Produces Biochar
What is Biochar?
Biochar is a charcoal-like substance created when biomass is heated up to 1200F in the absence of oxygen, such as in a Maine Kiln. The process is called Pyrolysis: properly dried and sized organic biomass is added to a reactor. The reactor is part of a contained, closed-loop system where it's converted to biochar.
Pyrolysis Reduces Waste Volume
The pyrolysis process used in a Maine Kiln reduces organic waste volume by about two-thirds and the char output helps sequester carbon to help future generations.
Biochar is Part of the Solution to the Massive Biomass Waste Challenge
Up to 50 billion tons of biomass is created each year in the USA and 75% of that is organic wood and agricultural waste that could become biochar through processing in a Maine Kiln.
