social and scalable climate solution, removing carbon from the atmosphere with low-cost and replicable technology.
Carbon Negative first site is currently under construction in the coastal region of Brazil.
We will make biochar from reforestation residual that would otherwise be wasted, burnt or decomposed.
The project will obtain certification from Puro.earth, a leading global certification organization for carbon removal.
We can produce up to 900 tons of biochar annually, with the potential to scale up to 9,000 tons of atmospheric carbon removal em 2024.
The feedstock will be sourced through partnerships with local reforestation farmers.
The biochar produced will be distributed to cassava producers who are part of the Territorial Action Plan, a program involving 57 local family farmers.
We go where the residue is.
We will also contribute to reducing the carbon emitted by transport. Therefore, we are going to take the biochar production technology to where the residue is.
We have several sites to be built in Brazil.
Our feedstock is easily accessible and negotiable as it comes from reforestation residues that have limited valorization options.
The use of biochar has proven to be most effective on tropical crops (Jeffery et al., 2017), which can increase farmers’ income.
Our pyrolysis technology has a positive social impact, as it is low-tech, has simple construction, and requires easy maintenance without the need for extensive skills.
