About
Emergent Waste Solutions (EWS) is a British Columbia–based private company that owns and operates its proprietary Advanced Thermolysis System (ATS), a pyrolysis technology that converts waste streams (MSW, tires, plastics, biomass, livestock waste) into products including biochar, bio-oil, bio-coal, carbon black, biogas and renewable natural gas. Its Ruby Creek plant near Hope, BC, on Yale First Nation land, is in commercial biochar production and is registered under the Puro.earth biochar methodology. In March 2025 EWS signed a letter of intent with Graycliff Exploration to go public via a reverse-style amalgamation.
