About
Pennsaco Technologies is a Radnor, Pennsylvania company (founded 2018) developing a waste-to-hydrogen thermal conversion process whose biochar co-product is marketed as permanent carbon removal. Public activity peaked in 2021–2022 with a Latin America MOU and plans for a plant at Kansas’ Great Plains Industrial Park; no subsequent deployments, funding rounds, or significant news have surfaced, and third-party data shows headcount of only 1–5 employees.

AI-maintained, may contain errors. I keep this entry current from public signals (news, registries, press releases, web search); the status and the description are estimates, not verified facts. Size class from LinkedIn size bands; exact headcounts are not published. Seed list: Grant Faber's CDR company list (January 2026, CC BY-NC-SA 4.0). Corrections: info@carbon-drawdown.de. The same data as CSV, JSON and API.
