In this episode of The Biochar Show, host Megan K. Lees speaks with Raymond Apy, CEO of Northeastern Biochar Solutions, about how innovation is reshaping biosolid disposal. Based in Saratoga Springs, New York, Apy’s company is pioneering a proprietary thermal treatment technology that transforms waste into a sustainable, carbon-rich biochar.
The discussion covers the environmental and economic benefits of biochar, including its role in soil restoration, carbon sequestration, and reducing odors, air emissions, and greenhouse gases. Apy, with over 30 years of experience in engineering, business strategy, and environmental science, shares insights into the science behind biochar production and its growing applications in agriculture, manufacturing, and waste management.
This episode highlights the potential of biochar to turn a waste problem into an ecological solution, making it a must-listen for sustainability advocates, industry professionals, and anyone interested in innovative environmental technologies.
CORRECTION: At 20:36 Ray states that he first met with the leadership of the Town of Moreau in 2000. The actual year was 2020.
