Over 4 billion tons of plant residues are burned annually, fueling wildfires despite their intrinsic economic value for conversion into fuels or chemicals. This talk explores the paradox of biomass disposal versus utilization, highlighting innovative efforts to make residue conversion economically attractive. The goal is to turn "trash into cash," reducing environmental and economic damage from burning.

Kevin Kung, CTO of biomass technology start-up Takachar and a Cyclotron Road fellow, specializes in biomass and energy conversion. With a Ph.D. from MIT, he co-founded Safi Organics, a profitable biochar fertilizer company serving over 3,500 farmers. This TEDx talk was given by him. Learn more at ted.com/tedx.
