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.

We Claim: 1. A thermally treated waste material feedstock comprising organic matter and NOx, SOx, or COx components absorbed and/or complexed therein, wherein the thermally treated waste material feedstock is formed as a result of contact of a waste material feedstock comprising at least 30% by weight water with gas turbine exhaust gases at a temperature of at least 500° F., in a confined space, to form the thermally treated waste material feedstock having a maximum nutrient value and organic matter content preserved in the thermally treated waste material feedstock due to an absence of significant oxidation of the waste material feedstock during said contact, and the waste material feedstock having undergone no, or as little as practical, bioconversion prior to said contact.
