Bioenergy
| Background
Compoz is an early-stage energy systems company developing upstream feedstock-conditioning infrastructure for organic waste. The company’s work is grounded in the hypothesis that a significant fraction of bioenergy potential is lost prior to conversion due to unmanaged degradation, moisture imbalance, and contamination during storage and handling. Compoz is advancing a novel physical–electro-mechanical interface designed to stabilize organic feedstocks immediately after generation, preserving energy density and improving downstream conversion performance. The team holds early intellectual property related to feedstock conditioning and is preparing lab-scale validation and DOE-aligned research programs.
Interest
Compoz is seeking research collaborations under ARPA-E programs (including SPARK) to experimentally validate the impact of upstream feedstock conditioning on energy retention, emissions during storage, and downstream bioenergy conversion efficiency. The company is particularly interested in partnering with national laboratories or universities to conduct lab-scale testing, analytical characterization, and conversion pathway modeling. Compoz is open to participating as a teaming partner or co-lead on proposals that explore system-level improvements to bioenergy performance through upstream intervention.
Capabilities
Compoz contributes early-stage hardware prototypes for upstream feedstock conditioning, system-level experimental design, and a clear technical hypothesis focused on preventing pre-conversion energy loss. Capabilities include feedstock stabilization interfaces, controlled handling and storage methodologies, and integration with laboratory testing workflows. The team brings experience in systems architecture, data-driven validation, and translation of lab results into scale-relevant design requirements. Compoz is prepared to support lab partners with prototype hardware, experimental protocols, and analysis to enable rapid hypothesis testing. |

Other Energy Technologies
| Ash Valor LLC, led by founder and principal investigator Paul W. Burt, is developing a solvent-free, AI-directed rare-earth and critical-oxide separation platform that integrates Dielectrophoresis (DEP) and Electrostatic Nanoparticle Gettering (ENG) into a unified, closed-loop process. The system uses field-based particle manipulation and ligand-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles to achieve high-purity separation of rare-earth elements (REEs) and metal oxides from ore, mine tailings, coal fly ash, and other industrial residues.
A neural-network controller dynamically adjusts electric-field frequency, voltage, and waveform while monitoring real-time spectroscopic and conductivity data (XRF, LIBS). This adaptive control continuously optimizes recovery efficiency and energy consumption. Bench-scale tests indicate REE recoveries exceeding 90 percent and SiO₂ purities above 99.999 percent, all with zero solvents or acid leachates, eliminating the environmental burden of conventional hydrometallurgical refining.
Ash Valor’s goal is to validate a 1-ton-per-day pilot within 12 months, followed by scale-up to a 1-million-ton-per-year commercial facility producing roughly 1,000 tons of REE oxides and more than 500,000 tons of SiO₂ and co-products annually. The process is modular, enabling replication across the United States to meet 100 percent of national REE demand within five years. Beyond rare-earths, the DEP-ENG framework applies to recovery of Al₂O₃, TiO₂, ZnO, and Fe₂O₃ for high-value oxide markets.
Ash Valor seeks collaboration with national laboratories, universities, and industrial partners in materials characterization, ore beneficiation, AI control systems, and process-scale validation. Ideal teaming partners include organizations with expertise in electromagnetic field modeling, nanoparticle chemistry, analytical instrumentation, and techno-economic analysis. The company welcomes participation under ARPA-E’s upcoming Advancing Characterization of Rare Earth Deposits (RFI-0000093) program and future SCALEUP initiatives.
Through cooperative research, Ash Valor aims to establish a solvent-free, environmentally responsible foundation for U.S. rare-earth independence—advancing ARPA-E’s mission to secure clean-energy supply chains while strengthening domestic industrial capability. |

We are particularly interested in teaming on ARPA-E programs focused on Energy Critical Materials, Quantum Systems, and AI/ML applications in industrial base resilience. Our unique value lies in bridging advanced computational methods (network science, NLP, agent-based simulation) with practical sourcing and trade analytics. We’ve developed the DMRG Terminal, a proprietary platform that maps supply chains down to the facility level, links trade data to HS codes, and overlays geopolitical indicators (tariffs, export controls, conflict zones) to expose hidden vulnerabilities.
Our work is grounded in ongoing contributions to federal efforts. In our recent response to DOE’s 2026 Critical Materials Assessment (RFI DE-FOA-0003568), we highlighted the strategic importance of under-assessed materials (e.g., helium-3, praseodymium, niobium, SiC, high-purity aluminum) across quantum hardware, cryogenics, and photonics. We proposed novel, forward-looking methodologies to anticipate future criticalities using text mining of technical literature and patent databases. This complements our trade-layer analysis, which detects asymmetric dependencies and non-price frictions (e.g., retaliatory tariffs, export bans) that traditional models often miss.
Our leadership team blends deep academic and industry credentials. Dr. Ilya Jackson (MIT Research Scientist, PhD in Computational Engineering) has authored over 30 peer-reviewed publications in AI, causal inference, and logistics systems. Ms. Nan Wang (MIT alumna) brings over a decade of senior sourcing experience in electronics and energy procurement (Rivian, Shell). Together, we integrate state-of-the-art analytics with domain expertise in procurement, manufacturing, and regulatory risk.
We seek to collaborate with ARPA-E performers working on hardware innovation, material processing, or next-generation manufacturing, offering them an intelligence layer that supports proactive design-for-resilience and strategic sourcing. |
