benefits by reducing carbon emissions and waste. In addition, we have a suite of other biochar-enhanced products ready for market introduction through licensing agreements, including<br />

biochar-based moldings, insulation panels, and fire-resistant boards.<br />

Business Model - Phase 2 (year 3-5)<br />

Anticipating exponential demand for high-quality biochar due to its critical role in atmospheric carbon removal, we are preparing for Phase 2 of our expansion. This phase involves developing<br />

biochar plants through separate Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs), with construction financed by selling high-quality biochar carbon removal (CDR) credits. Biochar is poised to play a pivotal<br />

role in the medium-durability carbon removal market, bridging the gap between more affordable solutions like afforestation and higher durability methods such as Direct Air Capture (DAC). By<br />

leveraging empirical data to validate its effectiveness, we will ensure our biochar projects meet stringent criteria for additionality and sustainability, providing reliable carbon removal solutions<br />

that align with the Net-Zero 2030 goals of major corporations like Microsoft, Google, and Apple, with whom our CEO has a proven track record.<br />

Long-Term Vision:<br />

Our long-term vision is to industrialize these innovations by creating related businesses, each with distinct Capex and Opex financing plans. Our future expansion will focus on developing a<br />

comprehensive suite of value-added IP, aiming to revolutionize construction materials globally—addressing the pressing environmental challenges and the housing crisis facing our world<br />

Why Biochar?<br />

? Biochar: A Keystone of <strong>Sustainable</strong> Innovation at <strong>Beyond</strong> <strong>Sustainable</strong> <strong>Tech</strong><br />

Biochar, a key element in both ancient agriculture and modern sustainability, represents more than just a material—it's a cornerstone of our<br />

commitment to environmental health. This carbon-rich substance is created by pyrolyzing plant matter in an oxygen-free environment.<br />

Unlike burning, pyrolysis transforms biomass into a stable form of carbon, effectively trapping the carbon absorbed from the atmosphere<br />

and preventing its release back into the air.<br />

● Carbon Sequestration: Captures and stores up to 2.6 billion tons of CO2 annually.<br />

● Soil Health: Boosts crop yields by up to 30% and reduces fertilizer use by 50%.<br />

● Waste Reduction: Converts 1.4 billion tons of organic waste into valuable products.<br />
