WasteX
One-stop waste-to-value solutions for agricultural producers in Southeast Asia
How does it work?
WasteX provides solutions for agriculture and industry helping clients generate attractive financial benefits, productivity gains, and positive environmental impact in the process. For our clients, we develop, implement and launch end-to-end solutions on their farms, and at their mills and factories.
Our flagship solution is a small-scale carbonizer that can be deployed on the farm and converts crop residues into biochar that is then applied in soil.
Why is it needed?
WasteX was launched to tackle the problem of 3.5 billion tons of agricultural processing waste globally that is dumped, burnt, or sold cheaply
How does it improve life?
This equipment is a game-changer for smallholder farmers combining affordability, automation and optimal performance. With Capex of <$3,000, it could generate up to $5,000 benefits per year (including heat production, biochar carbon credits and agricultural improvements).
