About
Pyrocal is a Queensland, Australia-based engineering firm that builds proprietary continuous pyrolysis systems (CCT) to convert biosolids and organic waste into biochar. They operate Australia’s first biosolids carbonisation facility at Logan Water’s Loganholme WWTP and were selected in 2025 to deliver a similar Canadian-first system for the Capital Regional District in British Columbia.
