Techniques, systems, apparatus and material are described for generating renewable energy from biomass waste while sequestering carbon. In one aspect, a method performed by a reactor to dissociate raw biomass waste into a renewable source energy or a carbon byproduct or both includes receiving the raw biomass waste that includes carbon, hydrogen and oxygen to be dissociated under an anaerobic reaction. Waste heat is recovered from an external heat source to heat the received raw biomass waste. The heated raw biomass waste is dissociated to produce the renewable fuel, carbon byproduct or both. The dissociating includes compacting the heated raw biomass waste, generating heat from an internal heat source, and applying the generated heat to the compacted biomass waste under pressure.

1. A method performed by a reactor to dissociate waste into a renewable source energy fuel or a carbon byproduct or both, the method comprising: receiving the waste that includes carbon, hydrogen and oxygen to be dissociated under an anaerobic reaction;recovering waste heat from an external heat source to heat the received waste; anddissociating, in a reactor, the heated waste at conditions in which char is not produced to produce the renewable fuel, the carbon byproduct, or both, the dissociating comprising compacting the heated waste,generating heat from an internal heat source of the reactor, andapplying the generated heat to the compacted waste under pressure. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein recovering the waste heat from the external heat source comprises at least one of: recovering heat rejected from an engine, andgenerating heat from a renewable energy generator comprising at least one of a wind energy generator, a solar energy generator, an energy generator from running water and a geothermal energy generator. 3. The method of claim 1, further comprising: advancing the compacted waste towards a dissociation zone for dissociating the compacted waste; andremoving moisture and air from the advancing compacted waste. 4. The method of claim 3, wherein removing the moisture and air comprises: extruding the compacted waste through a confined space to physically squeeze the moisture and air out. 5. The method of claim 1, further comprising: forcing the produced renewable fuel or carbon byproduct or both in a counter-flow direction from the advancing compacted waste; andtransferring heat from the produced renewable energy, or carbon byproduct or both that travel in the counter-flow direction. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the renewable fuel comprises at least one of hydrocarbon, alcohol, ammonia, and hydrogen, and wherein the carbon byproduct comprises at least one of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and carbon. 7. The method of claim 6, further comprising: producing a durable good using the carbon produced from the waste. 8. The method of claim 6, wherein the hydrocarbon comprises at least one of methane and ethane; and wherein the alcohol comprises at least one of methanol and ethanol. 9. The method of claim 6, further comprising: separating the hydrocarbon into hydrogen and carbon. 10. The method of claim 6, further comprising: producing a durable good using the carbon produced from the waste. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the waste comprises organic material containing carbon, hydrogen and oxygen obtained in response to photosynthesis. 12. The method of claim 1, further comprising applying a catalyst, in the reactor, to facilitate formation of the renewable energy fuel comprising a hydrocarbon including methane or ethane or an alcohol including methanol or ethanol, wherein the catalyst causes chemical reactions using hydrogen that form reactive components to produce the renewable fuel. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the catalyst comprises at least one of, chromium, ceramics with rare earth constituents, a platinum metal group, nobleized nickel, and intermetallics of transition metals. 14. The method of claim 1, wherein the waste comprises at least one of glucose, lignin, and cellulosic feedstock.
