About This Engagement

What Carbotura Is Proposing

Carbotura Inc. is proposing a 500 TPD Advanced Circular Manufacturing facility for Montgomery County — a modular manufacturing facility that converts the county's residual manufacturing feedstock into Renewable Graphite, Renewable Refined Water, Renewable Mineral Aggregates, and other manufactured products using electromagnetic energy in an anoxic environment. No combustion. No ash. No dioxin.

The facility is proposed at $295M capital investment, 100% Carbotura-financed. Montgomery County contributes manufacturing feedstock. In return, Carbotura pays the county a Circular Royalty™ equal to 120% of the TMC Fee paid, beginning 13 months after first Commercial Operations Date. The projected 30-year combined community benefit is $2.14B (illustrative).
