Pyomo-formulated compliance selector with deterministic enumeration across fuel specifications, air/water/solids permits, PFAS or biosecurity methods, MRV reporting, and integrated permit package coverage. Current package covers 7 categories and 18 compliance markers.

Markers tied to this gate

n-Dodecane; Pyridine; PFOA; Methane; Nitrate; Phosphoric acid

The marker set keeps fuel-release analytes, aqueous discharge loads, PFAS indicators, and reporting-relevant gases visible in one reviewer-facing surface.

NPDES load and toxicity closure campaign; Integrated regulator pre-application review; Title V source-boundary and monitoring architecture run

Selected gates keep product specification, air/water/solids permits, PFAS methods, and annual reporting coupled so no single pass metric can hide a compliance failure.

Current compliance decision

Conversion proof is not commercialization permission

The project can show conversion and upgrading progress while still being non-deployable. Compliance readiness requires linked evidence: fuel specifications, permit boundaries, residual and PFAS methods, biological controls, and annual GHG reporting controls that stand up under audit and regulator review.

Portfolio score607.3

7 compliance categories are covered by the selected package.

Top markerPFOA

PFAS persistence remains visible so release and residual narratives cannot skip matrix-qualified method evidence.

Max spec coverage94

Fuel-release quality checks are strong only when matched with permit and reporting controls.

Max MRV100

Carbon and emissions claims require annual ledger closure discipline, not one-time campaign results.
