CO₂ to minerals
We incorporate beneficial microorganisms in agricultural fields to remove CO₂ from the atmosphere
Technology
Andes beneficial microorganisms are added to the soil along with agricultural seeds, such as corn, soybean, and wheat.
These microorganisms grow with plant roots and accelerate the conversion of CO₂ into soil inorganic carbon.
With rainfall, the inorganic carbon is transported deep into the soil, making room for annual CO₂ removal.
Scale & Speed
Climate change needs to be addressed as fast as possible to prevent a catastrophe.
Our microorganism technology integrates seamlessly with existing farm operations.
These microorganisms enable agricultural fields to become mega-factories of carbon dioxide removal while growing food.
Our easy-to-adopt technology results in low-cost, gigatonne-scale carbon dioxide removal achievable in years, not decades.
Durable & Safe
Andes microorganisms are naturally occurring in soils and benefit plant health.
With science and technology, we harness what microorganisms have been doing for millions of years.
By turning carbon dioxide into soil inorganic carbon, the carbon is locked away, providing a durable and safe way to reduce CO₂ levels in the atmosphere.
Co-Benefits
The build-up of minerals in agricultural fields has positive effects on soil and plant health.
Benefits of increased soil inorganic carbon include improved water drainage, higher nutrient content in the soil, and decreased likelihood of plant diseases.
Additionally, minerals stabilize soil organic matter, benefiting the overall health of soil, plants, and communities that depend on agricultural systems.
