This invention discloses systems and methods for conversion of high moisture waste materials to dry or low moisture products for recycle or reuse. The equipment systems comprise a gas turbine generator unit (preferred heat source), a dryer vessel and a processing unit, wherein the connection between the gas turbine and the dryer vessel directs substantially all the gas turbine exhaust into the dryer vessel and substantially precludes the introduction of air into the dryer vessel and wherein the processing unit forms the dried material from the dryer vessel into granules, pellets or other desired form for the final product. Optionally, the systems and methods further provide for processing ventilation air from manufacturing facilities to reduce emissions therefrom.
A thermally treated waste material feedstock comprising organic matter, wherein the thermally treated waste material feedstock contains NOx, SOx, or COx components absorbed and/or complexed therein from contact of the waste material feedstock with gas turbine exhaust gases in a confined space and contains the maximum nutrient value and organic matter content preserved in the treated waste material feedstock due to the absence of significant oxidation of the waste material feedstock during said contact, wherein the waste material feedstock comprises sewage or animal waste material.
