From risk to resilience
​
Every summer, communities across America brace for fire, as a combination of drought, disease, fallen timber, and dense growth turn quiet hillsides into fuel waiting for a spark.
To counteract this the US Forest Service, communities and corporations pay to clear millions of acres of forest , in order to reduce the risk to life and property.
​
The Biochar Club™ offers a better way to manage this wildfire fuel reduction. Rather than use pile or open burns with large manpower requirements, we can now convert that material into stable biochar in an enclosed kiln enabling crews to work more efficiently, creating fire breaks nearby whilst fuel reduces down in an enclosed container, safely, and with minimal emissions.
​
Biochar Club™ can help protect communities and improve their quality of life, whilst allowing overstretched foresters to be more productive, and reducing the need to put them at risk in the middle of an open and unstable fire.
Life Safety
​
For land custodians and fire authorities, the M-Kiln™ becomes a tool that protects today and restores tomorrow. Because the flame burns within a closed stainless chamber, it produces almost no visible smoke and very few sparks, making it ideal for use even in dry areas, and reducing the health risk for vulnerable citizens.
​
The M-Kiln™ can be configured as a light compact unit to access clearings inside the forest or a large unit placed on forest edges or community fire breaks to process large previously felled trunks, brush and trimmings into biochar that can be returned directly to the soil to help retain moisture, encourage regrowth, and reduce erosion and flood risk.
