Advanced Circular Manufacturing
Discover how Carbotura's Advanced Circular Manufacturing (ACM) approach replaces legacy disposal systems with sustainable material production through Total Material Conversion
Why Advanced Circular Manufacturing is 50-100x More Sophisticated
You can either build or expand your landfill with a forever liability, or you can add high-paying manufacturing jobs and receive a perpetual Circular Royalty for your manufacturing feedstock.
Ask your Citizens which they want.
The Paradigm Shift
Understanding the fundamental difference between legacy disposal models and Advanced Circular Manufacturing (ACM)
Do you want your city known for its legacy disposal burden or for its advanced manufacturing?
Disposal and treatment services that charge fees to make problems go away
- Full capital burden on community
- All CAPEX burden to public
- All liability on public
- Creates environmental burden
Material production operations that pay for feedstock to create valuable products
- Zero capital risk -- Carbotura finances, builds, owns, and operates under the BOO model
- Zero CAPEX burden to public
- No liability on public
- Zero environmental burden
Transform Your Manufacturing Feedstock
Into Perpetual Revenue
What if your community could transform every ton of feedstock into valuable revenue instead of costly disposal? That's exactly what Carbotura's Advanced Circular Manufacturing process delivers through Total Material Conversion (TMC).
*Average Circular Royalty over the Circular Offtake Agreement term, beginning 13 months after feedstock delivery
Unlike traditional recycling that recovers 30-60% of materials or landfilling that recovers 0%, Carbotura is designed to achieve Total Material Conversion (TMC) -- converting virtually all incoming feedstock into saleable manufactured materials.
- Near-zero residuals to landfill
- Near-zero residuals or ash
- 150+ different materials produced
- Virgin-equivalent quality output
The economic inversion: pay a competitive TMC Fee for feedstock conversion, then receive a recurring Circular Royalty derived from the value of manufactured materials -- beginning 13 months after delivery.
*TMC Fee is competitive with or below current disposal costs | **Average Circular Royalty over COA term | For a city with 100 TPD: $6.8M annual benefit
No Sorting Required
The Carbotura Protocols convert mixed feedstock streams. No need for extensive sorting, cleaning, or separation that traditional recycling requires. This means lower operational costs and higher participation rates.

COA Term Cumulative Cash Flow Impact
Community provides the renewable resource
Your 400 TPD feedstock supply contains US$ 185-300M/year of recoverable materials
Sign a Circular Offtake Agreement (COA)
30-year guaranteed feedstock supply agreement for the ACM modular factory
Community receives the Circular Royalty
Recurring royalty beginning 13 months after feedstock delivery, derived from manufactured material value (2.5% annual escalation)
Carbotura builds, owns, and operates the modular factory (BOO model)
Takes all capital risk, achieves Total Material Conversion, keeps material sales revenue (US$ 185-300M/year)
Simple Analogy: Through the Circular Advantage Program, the community pays a TMC Fee (less than current disposal costs) and receives a Circular Royalty from the value of what their feedstock becomes -- everyone wins, but Carbotura takes all capital risk and operational complexity.
Improved Credit Rating
Eliminating US$ 450-900M in liabilities while adding US$ 320M NPV revenue asset strengthens your balance sheet, potentially improving bond ratings by 1-2 notches
Enhanced Bonding Capacity
Stronger balance sheet and positive cash flow increase bonding capacity by US$ 200-500M for other critical infrastructure projects
Inflation Protection
2.5% annual revenue escalation built into the Circular Offtake Agreement protects against inflation while legacy disposal costs rise 3%+ annually

The Circular Advantage Program
Carbotura's partnership framework that enables communities to become Feedstock Suppliers under a Circular Offtake Agreement (COA) -- paying a competitive TMC Fee and receiving a perpetual Circular Royalty.
30-year agreement with two core components: the TMC Fee (you pay for conversion) and the Circular Royalty (Carbotura pays you back). Replaces legacy disposal contracts.
Recurring royalty Carbotura pays back to feedstock suppliers, beginning 13 months after delivery. Derived from the value of manufactured materials. Escalates 2.5% annually.
Carbotura finances, builds, owns, and operates the modular factory. Zero CAPEX, zero liability, zero operational burden for the community.
