Current Project

Our current project addresses CLIMATE CHANGE and carbon sequestration in major ways. It reduces carbon emissions in agriculture, which accounts for a high percentage of greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere. 3.5 million is needed.

Project: BIOCHAR PRODUCTION FROM OLIVE MILL RESIDUES & Carbon-Reduction, in Andalucia, Spain.

Fast facts:

  • Biochar production at pilot scale: 3,500 tons/yr

  • Carbon credits: ~10,000/yr

  • Scale-up plans: Yes, annually

  • Profit at pilot scale: 2 million annually

  • Cost at pilot scale: 3.5m

We are seeking funding for a biochar production facility project in southern Spain. This will begin on pilot scale, move to full scale, and then more facilities are planned for the future. The project has emerged from the planning stage and has entered its action phase, pending funding. This project will address the following problem:

Problem: In an area of concentrated agricultural activity, we have noted a high amount of agricultural waste which is ending being burned. Moreover, growers struggle with water scarcity, drought, heat waves, GHG emissions, unhealthy soil, high costs of inputs/chems, erosion and loss of inputs/chems.

Solution: Amata Green will be building a series of pyrolysis facilities across southern Spain, processing agricultural biomass residuals and turning it into biochar. We will be creating a circular economy where this ag waste can be processed and then returned back to the farming industry (and other industries) as a rich commodity. This will be very beneficial to the farming industry in the area and the community as a whole, as it helps to solve all of the above problems and more. Issues of landfill, soil salinity, water scarcity, nutrient leaching and overuse of inputs—all would be diminished. Moreover, our project reduces GHG emissions, sequesters carbon, and places these reductions onto the global carbon market.

Not only is this project important for growing healthier food, but also for the health of the surrounding communities, the environment, and the planet.

For this project, we are currently & actively seeking investors and partners. This project is predicted to be a multi-million dollar revenue generator.
