How It Works…
Our Team Collects the Organic Matter
Using the funds donated we will employ local workers to collect unwanted organic matter such as tree prunings, hedge cuttings and weeds.
It’s Time to Burn
We will process the organic waste in our specialist locally made kilns, using the low oxygen, low emission process called pyrolysis.
The Biochar Is Born
When burned with minimal oxygen, the carbon in the organic material will be fixed as Biochar, minimising the emission of CO₂ to the atmosphere.
What Next for the Biochar?
The Biochar will be activated with a commercial microbial compound then sold to local farmers as an organic soil improver.
Once Biochar is incorporated into the soil it remains stable for hundreds, if not thousands of years.
Soil treated with activated Biochar will support abundant growth and remove yet more CO₂ from the atmosphere, without the need for industrially produced fertilisers.
Why is it so valuable?
Instant CO₂ Removal
Planting trees is great but it takes time. When it comes to climate change time isn’t on our side. Producing Biochar is a fast way to remove CO₂ from the atmosphere.
What is Biochar?
Biochar is an amazing sponge that will hold (absorb) huge amounts of water.
Healthier Plants
Biochar supports healthy plant growth and encourages richer soil life to give plants that extra boost!
Better Soil
Plants like soil that has a nice, neutral pH. Biochar helps balance out soil that’s to acidic for plants to absorb nutrients.
Promotes Germination
Better soil means better germination, Biochar improves soil quality which in turn helps promote germination.
Bug Friendly
Biochar encourages microbes which help plants digest all the nutrients they need.
