Permachar is a small business that aims to work towards building a fairer and greener future by producing biochar and biochar appropriate technology that promises to deliver clean Carbon offsetting and removal via millennia+ scale sequestration, energy cogeneration, water conservation and improved soil fertility for greater climate, energy, water and food security. Prosperity with 'regenerative degrowth' and 'Carbon-negative cultures'. The main focus is on semi-arid research.
The business is now protoyping the medium-scale Flame Cap 'Algorithm' Panel Kiln test unit (see page on website). This biochar kiln is easily fabricated, feedstock agnostic with minimal ag/hort biomass waste feedstock processing, expandable volume with easy logistics. Anyone interested in joining an R&D cluster please contact me on the 'Contact' form.
Glocalisation: Top-down 'global' thinking, Bottom-up 'local' action. Biochar is a 'permaculture' technology that when integrated into into a regenerative circular economy in a cascade of uses serves multiple functions and is supported by multiple elements. I aim to produce biochar and biochar appropriate technology following the permaculture principles of 'Care for the Earth', 'Care for people', and 'Redistribution of surplus'.
