About Us
 Renewable Oil Corporation Pty Ltd (ROC) is developing a renewable energy business in Australia, based on innovative, commercially demonstrated pyrolysis technology. This new business will utilise wood residues and green waste to produce electricity, heat, charcoal and value-added chemicals.
Our pyrolysis plants will be built close to sources of biomass feed. The plants will produce bio-oil that may then be transported by road, rail or ship. So pyrolysis allows production of power and heat remote from the source of biomass. Electricity and process heat may be focused on the needs and locations of its users, not on the location of the biomass fuel. Using biomass from plantation forestry, sugar cane processing or municipal waste, we can provide flexible, continuous renewable energy.
Project size is based around modular pyrolysis plants. Each pyrolysis plant can process 65,000 dry tonnes (or approx. 130,000 green tonnes) of biomass each year. Then, depending on power plant configuration, we can generate between 2.5 and 8 MW of renewable electricity, plus process steam, on a continuous basis. With bio-oil from more than one pyrolysis unit we can generate as much as 25 MW continuously at a given site.
ROC can build, own and operate the pyrolysis and energy plants. Alternatively we can work in joint venture, or act as a technology provider and engineer to other parties.
