Summary
Based in Spain, the technology center specializes in agricultural and agrifood sectors.
The use of biochar in the soil helps to improve agricultural productivity as well as the quality of agricultural products. The main advantage of the technology is to contribute to sustainable agriculture and mitigate climate change.
Seeking partnerships for growth, they welcome cooperative R&D or commercial agreements with technical assistance.
Description
The Spanish technology centre is specialized in providing innovative solutions and conducting research in various areas, including sustainable agriculture, viticulture industry, agricultural mechanization and experimentation, forest management and enviromental conservation. Their innovation lies in agronomic experimentation and innovation, optimizing crop nutrition, productivity, soil health, and pest control.
The organization has an extensive expertise in integrating cutting-edge tecnologies with agricultural practices. The center stands as a reputable player in the market, recognized for its commitment to sustainable practises and research excellence.
The technology offered is:
The study of the use of different types of raw materials (plant biomass) and variation of production processes for the production of biochar, thus increasing the variability of the composition of the final product, providing a variation of nutrients for agricultural and horticultural production. Biochar has diverse uses, as a soil amendment, as an adsorbent, as catalysts, for livestock feed, energy production, wastewater treatment, energy storage and additives for building materials. Other important applications of biochar include increasing soil fertility, climate change mitigation and for sustainable agriculture.
An optimal feedstock selection will be developed, studying the best temperatures for pyrolysis and different techniques of modification of its structure and texture will be designed in order to produce a biochar with low production cost, low environmental impact and better specific characteristics.
For desired cooperation, the center envisions collaborative research and development agreements and commercial partnerships with technical support. These partnerships are chosen to facilitate mutual learning and the exchange of expertise.
The international cooperation envisaged involves shared research, joint projects, and knowledge dissemination to drive global progress in agriculture.
