​Bio-bitumen

​Bitumen is one of the key ingredients required to make roads and pavements.  It is the binder that holds together the gravel and other aggregates.

It is derived from crude oil and imported by most countries around the world.  It has a carbon footprint of approx. 0.5 ton per ton of bitumen.

Farmed Carbon’s bio-bitumen can be used as a partial replacement for traditional bitumen.  Every ton comes with a high quality carbon credit of approx. 1.5 ton, enabling, for the first time, carbon neutral or even carbon negative roads.

​Biochar

​Biochar is a charcoal like substance.  It is highly porous and an incredibly stable form of carbon with a high flash point.

Biochar has numerous and far reaching use cases including:

• As an additive to concrete, strengthening its properties and reducing the amount of cement required by ~30%
• An additive to asphalt, strengthening its properties and reducing the amount of aggregate required by ~30%
• Soil amendment, improving its quality via better water retention and nutrient holding capacity. Reduces the amount of fertiliser required by ~50%
• As an additive to cattle fodder which reduces methane emissions by ~20-30%
• High quality water and air filtration
• For the direct air capture of CO2

​And such is Biochar's versatility it can also be used as a health supplement to reduce cholesterol, treat upset stomachs and cure hangovers!!

​Wood vinegar

Wood vinegar is a dark liquid that consists of over 200 different organic compounds.

It has been used for centuries in traditional medicine, agriculture, and as a natural insecticide and repellent. Wood vinegar has become more widely utilised in recent years for reclaiming degraded soils, accelerating composting, enhancing soil fertility, limiting nitrogen loss and improving disease prevention and stress resistance.

Syngas

A by-product of the pyrolysis process is a syngas rich in hydrogen.  This gas is primarily used to power Farmed Carbon’s systems so that they are energy neutral.
