What Earthcare does
Earthcare, LLC is an Evansville, Indiana-based environmental technology company that designs, sells, and installs proprietary gasification systems converting agricultural and industrial waste streams into two outputs: thermal energy (hot air usable for steam, building heat, or power) and Ecochar, a trademarked biochar byproduct. The technology platform is feedstock-flexible, processing poultry litter, multiple animal manures, municipal biosolids, spent mushroom substrate, refuse-derived fuel, food and packaging waste, wet distillers' grain, and wood and plant biomass. Earthcare has built a downstream branded product line around the solid output, including Ecochar for soil amendments, soil/water remediation, and animal bedding, and a formulated fertilizer branded as Vital Force Soil Energizer that uses Ecochar as its primary component.
Earthcare operates a B2B enterprise field-sales motion, selling custom-engineered systems directly to large agricultural operations (poultry and livestock farms) and municipal wastewater treatment facilities. Named reference customers include Roskar (a 6 million bird layer operation, operational January 2019), Krasnobor (turkey farm, operational September 2019), Almarai (a four-gasifier broiler poultry litter deployment in Saudi Arabia, operational September 2021), and Bethel, PA (a municipal biosolids system operational April 2024). For projects outside the United States, Earthcare distributes through a strategic channel partnership with Mavitec Green Energy. The company was previously associated with Coaltec Energy, under which predecessor installations were deployed. Earthcare is a privately held LLC with no disclosed institutional funding.
Revenue mechanics are anchored on hardware sales of gasification systems, supplemented by sales of Ecochar and Vital Force Soil Energizer, and by waste-processing services that convert a disposal cost for the customer into an energy-plus-char revenue stream. Pricing is project-specific and not publicly disclosed. The firm employs 11-50 people, has no disclosed patents beyond the Ecochar trademark, and reports no AI/ML, app, or API capabilities. Geographic reach today is North America (direct sales) and the Middle East (via the Mavitec channel).

Earthcare product offering
Product offeringCore offering
Earthcare designs, sells, and installs proprietary gasification systems that convert agricultural and industrial waste materials (poultry litter, biosolids, manures, food waste, wood biomass, RDF) into usable energy (hot air for steam, heat, power) and Ecochar, a trademarked biochar byproduct. The company additionally sells downstream Ecochar-based products including Vital Force Soil Energizer, an all-natural fertilizer utilizing Ecochar as a primary component for agricultural applications.
Product overview
Earthcare offers a unified waste-to-energy technology platform centered on proprietary gasification systems that convert agricultural and industrial waste materials into two main products: energy (in the form of hot air for steam, building heat, power) and Ecochar (the trademarked biochar solid byproduct). The company's product portfolio includes the gasification system itself, Ecochar for various applications, and Vital Force Soil Energizer, a formulated fertilizer utilizing Ecochar as a primary component. The technology is highly flexible, capable of processing diverse feedstocks including poultry litter, biosolids, manures, spent mushroom substrate, refuse-derived fuel, wet distillers' grain, and wood biomass.
