⚠️ WORKING DOCUMENT

This document is in pre-release engineering development. Values marked OPEN are unresolved at this revision. Not released for PE sign-off. Class 2 (±15%) target at Rev 1 following OER Gate 2 data gathering.

1. Executive Summary

Document Boundary Statement

This Technical Design Specification defines module-level technical requirements, interfaces, testing, and warranty boundaries only; commercial risk allocation, financing structures, delivery arrangements, and lender requirements are addressed in separate contractual and financing documents.

Manufacturing Classification Statement

This Technical Design Specification describes module-level requirements for an Advanced Circular Manufacturing subsystem and does not define or imply waste treatment, storage, or disposal activities.

Near-Zero Design Intent Statement

The Regenesis Protocol is engineered as a closed-loop manufacturing subsystem designed for near-zero emissions, near-zero discharge, and near-zero residual. This design intent is achieved through: continuous negative-pressure operation of the Recyclotron vessel at 0.5 atm vacuum; nitrogen-atmosphere enclosure eliminating all combustion pathways; continuous gas extraction through the vortex finder to the APS Capture Stream and product gas train; double-stage N2-purged rotary airlock solid discharge; and the absence of any routine wastewater discharge or atmospheric release pathway. Environmental performance outcomes are contingent on execution at commercial scale and will be validated through SAT and Full Performance Testing (FPT) procedures.

OER Classification Statement

This document represents Class 2 (±15%) OEM Engineering Release (OER), equivalent to "Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) / DOE FEL-3" [external regulatory reference — DOE LPO / AACE 18R-97 only]. This classification is the required pre-condition for DOE Loan Programs Office Title 17 loan guarantee applications, PE sign-off, and institutional project finance close. Where open decisions prevent Class 2 closure of specific parameters, those parameters are explicitly flagged as OPEN with the gate at which they close.

ASI Role Statement

Carbotura Inc. holds all design authority, engineering specifications, and OEM intellectual property. The Authorized Strategic Integrator (ASI) — RK Industries, with formal designation pending D-ASI-01 — is responsible for packaging design, system integration, fabrication, factory assembly, Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT), quality assurance, third-party certifications, Unitized Warranty Passport issuance, and authorized spares provisioning, all executed to Carbotura OEM specification. The ASI holds no design authority. All engineering changes require Carbotura Engineering Change Notice (ECN) authorization prior to ASI implementation.

Domestic Manufacturing Commitment Statement

All Carbotura Advanced Circular Manufacturing (ACM) Facility modules are assembled, tested, and warranted in the United States of America by the Authorized Strategic Integrator (ASI). Equipment procurement adheres to Carbotura's American Manufacturing Preference Policy. This commitment supports DOE Loan Programs Office domestic content requirements, Buy American Act alignment, and institutional investor supply chain transparency obligations.

Revenue Performance Baseline Statement

All throughput guarantees and performance metrics in this document are baselined to RevCon 3: $150M–$325M/yr revenue floor at 400 TPD baseline factory configuration (128 PEM modules / 32 MW Zero-E PowerBlock / 16 Recyclotrons at 4 trains × 4 reactors / one Pregenesis Protocol module at full nameplate throughput).

3. Module Register

Train Architecture (LOCKED)

16 Recyclotrons organized into 4 reactor-groups of 4 reactors each. Each reactor-group is served by 2 parallel downstream trains, each sized for the full group load (100 TPD). Normal duty per train: 50%. One train offline → sister train absorbs full load → zero facility throughput reduction. This is a 1-of-2 redundant architecture within each group.

4. Process Description

4.1 MCR Process

The Regenesis Protocol executes Microwave Catalytic Reforming (MCR) — the canonical Carbotura process name for the Recyclotron reactor chemistry. MCR is not pyrolysis. MCR is not gasification. MCR is a proprietary co-processing regime in which Manufacturing Feedstock and Enhancement Admix undergo simultaneous microwave irradiation, catalytic reaction, and thermal conversion within a single vessel under controlled nitrogen atmosphere.

The Enhancement Admix particles — which carry residual carbon and metallic compounds — are highly efficient microwave susceptors at 915 MHz. They absorb microwave energy and convert it to thermal energy, creating microscopic thermal gradients throughout the feedstock/admix mixture. This is the mechanism of Flash Reformation: rapid molecular devolatilization driven by microwave-induced thermal energy delivery from within the mixture, not from external combustion or heated walls.

Gas extraction: Product gas exits through the top dome vortex finder and is routed to the downstream train (REG-PCY-001). All gas extraction is under vacuum — the 0.5 atm operating pressure ensures net inflow of N2 at any seal leakage point, never outflow of process gas to atmosphere.

Solid discharge: The bed discharges continuously through the double-stage rotary airlock at the vessel bottom. The solid discharge is a mixture of OmniCrude Metal Phase, Glass Phase, and Mineral Phase — separated downstream by REG-MET-001, REG-GLS-001, and REG-MIN-001.
