HTC uses water, moderate heat and pressure to convert compatible feedstocks into energy-dense hydrochar. For wet biomass, the process can eliminate the energy-intensive pre-drying step generally required by conventional pyrolysis.

Questions people usually ask before working with us
Is this the same as incineration?
No. HTC uses controlled heat and pressure in a sealed reactor vessel — there is no open flame or combustion of waste at any point in the process.
How proven is this technology, really?
The foundational science has been in active use for over a century, with Riven's specific implementation actively operating in Japan for 17 years and across five countries. It's rated Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 9 — proven in operational environments, not experimental.
What can the system actually process?
Plastics, manure, food waste, sewage sludge, and medical waste — with minimal pre-processing beyond removing metal, rock, and glass. The system is largely feedstock-agnostic, which is a meaningful departure from most competing technologies.
Why does the modular design matter so much?
It's the single biggest driver of Riven's cost and timeline advantage. A containerized system installs in months, not years, and scales by adding units rather than rebuilding — which is exactly the kind of flexibility traditional mega-plants can't offer.
