N2 - Downsized technology based on hydrothermal liquefaction and electrochemical upgrading appears to be a plausible way to valorize waste. We do need to devise new catalysts. Reactors exist that could deploy them. Such a new enterprise would be transformative: specifically it could convert a waste that now costs $60/ton to dispose and turn it into a profit stream. The new enterprise is being designed to appeal to waste-producing companies (e.g., agriculture), communities and product off-takers.
