ABOUT OUR COMPANY
DarkStar Environmental is a pyrolysis contracting and consulting firm built to confront two of the hardest problems in modern waste: discarded plastic and overflowing landfills.
We are a full-service company. Clients do not have to assemble a dozen vendors and hope they line up. DarkStar can be the single point of contact from concept through commissioning — a turn-key partner for plastic-to-value and landfill diversion projects.
We design systems, navigate permitting, specify and represent proven equipment, and manage construction so operators, municipalities, and private developers can convert liability into a managed process.
Independent Voice
Construction and optional financial consulting when
a third-party review is needed.
TURNKEY
Design through commissioning,
including chemical storage, construction, hiring, and training.
75+
Combined years of experience across design, construction, engineering, and
operations.
THE PROBLEM WE WORK ON
Plastic that has no viable recycling path still has energy and material value. Landfills that are running out of airspace still receive it. Pyrolysis — the controlled thermal conversion of feedstock in the absence of oxygen — is one of the few industrial paths that can take mixed and contaminated plastics and produce usable outputs instead of burying them.
That path only works when engineering, environmental permitting, feedstock handling, and construction are treated as one project, not four separate contracts.
This is the work DarkStar does.
WHO WE SERVE
Private developers and operators evaluating or building pyrolysis capacity.
Municipalities and solid-waste authorities looking at landfill diversion.
Industrial generators with a plastic stream that recycling markets will not take.
Landfill owners who need a constructive alternative to more cells.
HOW WE WORK
Most waste-to-energy and advanced recycling projects fail in the gaps: equipment selected before the permit
path is understood, a site that cannot support the layout, or a shredder that cannot prepare the feedstock the reactor needs. DarkStar closes those gaps by keeping design, equipment, surveying, permitting, and construction under one roof.
You can engage us for a single scope
— a permit package, an equipment recommendation, a survey — or hand us
the full turn-key mandate. Either way, the standard is the same: a plant that can be built, permitted, fed, and operated.
A TURN-KEY PATH
If you have a site, a feedstock, or only a problem, we can start at the beginning: evaluate the waste stream, survey and site the plant, design the process, select equipment, prepare and support the permit applications, and manage construction through startup.
That is DarkStar Environmental — a contractor and consultant whose job is to make waste plastic and landfill pressure into a project that can actually be built.

OUR SERVICES
We Offer a Range of Services to Meet All Types of Needs
CONSULTING
Process design and project development
Mass and energy balance, layout, feedstock strategy, and a buildable process package tailored to your site and throughput.
Land surveying
Accurate site data for siting, grading, utilities, and construction documents.
Project forecasting
Throughput, oil yield, schedule, and revenue. Cost overruns — early variance, remaining cost, and recovery paths. Viability and profitability.
PLANT DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT
Industrial facilities design
Process layout, utilities, materials handling, and constructibility for pyrolysis, MSW, and petrochemical units.
Industrial engineering
Mechanical, process, and cost-schedule engineering for waste-to-energy and hydrocarbon facilities.
Construction management
Field coordination, schedule, contractors, and commissioning support so the plant that was designed is the plant that gets built.
Optional financial audit
Man-hours, equipment and material cost to date, and cost to complete
Permitting support, start to finish
We assist with air, solid waste, local land-use, and related approvals so the plant is designed to be permitted — not redesigned after the first agency comment.
The pyrolysis equipment provided by our technology partner has been permitted by the Southern California Air Quality Management District, recognized as having the most stringent requirements in the world.
PROVEN TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS
Darkstar Environmental represents proven technologies installed in over 10 countries.
ARTI pyrolysis equipment. We represent ARTI pyrolysis systems and help match reactor capacity and configuration to your feedstock and offtake goals.
Vecoplan shredding and conveying. Reliable size reduction and material handling are what keep a pyrolysis line fed. We represent Vecoplan shredders and conveyors as part of a complete front-end package.
EXPERIENCE
The DarkStar team brings a combined 75-plus years of experience across pyrolysis and thermal process systems, waste handling, civil and survey work, environmental permitting, and construction management.
That depth is what lets us sit with regulators, equipment manufacturers, and contractors in the same week and keep the project moving.
STRATEGIC PARTNERS
DarkStar Environmental works with established equipment partners so a pyrolysis line can be specified as a system — reactor, size reduction, and conveying — not as catalog items dropped on a pad. Representation means we know the machines, the feed requirements, and how they fit a site, and we stay accountable for how they perform in the overall process.
