Most crop and forest residues (biomass) are loose, wet, and bulky, making them very expensive to collect and transport. As such, many rural communities are often shut out from the bioeconomy, and their only recourse is to burn the local residues in open air. This creates significant air pollution as well as risks for catastrophic wildfires. Takachar develops small-scale, low-cost, and portable systems that can latch onto the back of tractors and pick-up trucks, and deploy to rural, hard-to-access communities to locally upgrade and densify residues on-site into higher-value, carbon-negative bioproducts such as fertilizer blends, biofuels, and chemicals. The process requires no external energy or heat to run. Our goal is to create a network of self-sufficient rural communities less dependent on unreliable imported supply chains for their essential chemical commodities. By doing so, we create localized unskilled jobs and promote environmental justice.
