Did you know this is steam, not smoke? We dry tons of wet peat every day to make our products, and we treat the steam to remove the particulate matter before it is released through our stack. The steam becomes part of the natural water cycle and will return to us as rain.

About us
American Peat Technology manufactures value-added products from natural reed-sedge peat. Our bioAPT line of products is used to carry time-tested and innovative technologies to the field. Our granular bioAPT is the industry standard for peat-based Rhizobia carriers. Other uses for our bioAPT line include other PGPM, remediation microbes such as Pseudomonas, micronutrients and biopesticides. BioAPT is available in granular crumble, powdered fines, and coming soon, a spherical prill. Our APTsorb line of products harnesses the natural affinity of reed-sedge peats for the sequestration of heavy metals, but transforms it into a hardened granular material that can withstand continual hydraulic loading. APTsorb is effective against a variety of metals, robustly adapts to changing conditions, and is a cost-effective treatment method for many applications. APTsorb can be deployed in tanks, vaults, booms or nearly any configuration where the flow rate can be controlled and the water-media contact is sufficient. American Peat Technology is committed to stewarding the valuable peat resources of central Minnesota. Minnesota peats are a unique natural resource that can be sustainably harvested through careful use and thoughtful reclamation. Even as APT harvests peat, we are staging revegetation efforts to return our harvest area to sustainable, peat-producing wetlands.

"Horticultural peat is used to feed the world. For example, enough peat is harvested each year from a single acre of peatland to grow between 14 and 40 million vegetable seedlings (depending on plug size). Peat also reforests the world. The volume of peat harvested from a single acre each year can grow more than 3.3 million forest seedlings, which is enough to replant over 6,400 acres of forestland. The volume of peat harvested from a single acre each year can grow more than 56 million seedlings of petunias, impatiens, marigold, geranium, etc." Though our products aren’t used in horticulture, peat touches many parts of the agricultural systems that feed our world.
