At Anglo African Carbon Sequestration, we specialize in transforming agricultural waste biomass from West Africa into biochar - a powerful soil enhancer that helps remediate poor quality and damaged soil. Our process not only improves soil health, but also locks up carbon dioxide in the restored soil, contributing to lowering atmospheric carbon levels.
In addition we produce both Bio Oil and syngas which provide sustainable replacements for fossil fuels.
We are committed to driving positive environmental change through innovative, eco-friendly solutions, whilst also contributing where possible to supporting the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Fuel sourcing and Processing
Fuel preparation , processing and logistics are key to generating the most cost effective production of Biochar and its sister products . We have leveraged over 50 years of combined Management experience to select the most appropriate technology and partners to work with in West Africa.
The business is working with Research organisations in Ghana, Germany and the UK to develop a matrix of deployment "receipes" to suit different soil conditions and states that maximises the value of the biochar in delvering environmental and financial benefits for our clients.
Sucessful deployment and delivery requires more than just Technology and clever science. Realisation of the full potential of our concept can only be achieved by building strong and durable relationships with local stakeholders. The mangement team are focussed on building and maintaining these by investing in their staff , suppliers and local communities.
