In Search Of Ltd.
We are primarily in the business of making M.M.M.M Biochar (Moistened.Micronized.Mineralized.Microbialized) that plants & animals benefit from due to the carbon structure housing a Manhattan of microbes & molecules. Biochar has a range of applications we at ISO Ltd. are particularly interested in those of it as a soil ammendment, animal feed & reducing eutrophication from run-off in rivers.Beyond the direct benefits of Biochar to the environment it is in we aim in time to have it recognized as a stable carbon sink in NZ to help further incentivize it's production/use to help mitigate the effects of climate change.

Our Process
Making Biochar
We utilize a Kon-tiki Kiln which forms a flame-cap where biomass is reduced to Biochar. The fire is then quenched with seawater to moisten & mineralize. We then post-process by micronize & screening in a mixer/trommel in our facility. For growing applications we innoculate the Biochar through either vermicomposting (worms) or a aerated manure tea.
How is Biochar so good?
Properties
Biochar's catalytic properties come from it having a highly porous & stable carbon structure which enables it to be a Manhattan of microbes & molecules.
Biochar properties include:
High water holding capacity
Improved soil structure
Nutrient supply/retention
Ion-exchange capacity (enhanced by seawater quenching)
Long term stable Carbon Sink
