EXPERT ADVISORY FOR THERMOCHEMICAL CONVERSION PROJECTS.
Isometric Class 1 Certified
600 TPD MSW-to-Coal
30+ Years Experience
5 Advisors, specialists
We don't advise from a textbook. We advise from a running, certified, operating plant.
SGC provides Owner's Engineer, DPR preparation, and CDR certification advisory for biochar, torrefaction, and MSW-to-fuel projects — delivered by practitioners who have executed India's largest thermochemical plants at commercial scale.
Most projects fail before commissioning — not at the market.
Without independent technical representation, project owners discover gaps at the point they are most expensive to fix.
Without an Owner's Engineer
EPC contractors manage information flow. Gaps surface at commissioning — scope de-scoped, equipment off-specification, biochar failing certification. By then, remediation costs more than oversight would have.
What SGC brings that no generalist PMC can
We designed, built, commissioned, and certified the Sanchore pyrolysis plant ourselves. Our advisory is benchmarked against real operational data — actual CAPEX, actual throughput, actual biochar quality across multiple production runs.
LEAD ADVISOR CREDENTIAL
India's largest MSW-to-coal torrefaction project — 600 TPD.
Our lead advisor headed and executed hands-on India's largest municipal solid waste to coal torrefaction project at 600 TPD — six times the scale NTPC classifies as a "larger reactor." Over 30 years of direct thermochemical experience, across biomass and MSW.
SGC's advisory combines our own Isometric Class 1 biochar experience with an advisory team whose execution history spans India's largest thermochemical conversion projects.
Engineers and project leaders who have stood in the plant, managed the contractor, signed off the commissioning report, and handed over a running facility — not consultants who have studied the sector from the outside.
