AGRICULTURAL RESIDUES. LASTING IMPACT.
Turning Agricultural Residues into a Cleaner Future
NV CARBON is developing a scalable platform that transforms regionally available agricultural residues into high-quality biochar through industrial pyrolysis, creating a pathway for durable carbon removal and circular use of biomass. Our first commercial project is being developed around peanut shells in Osmaniye.

OSMANİYE PROJECT
Built Close to the Feedstock
Our first commercial facility is being developed in Osmaniye, Türkiye, one of the country's key agricultural processing regions. It is planned to process approximately 10,000 tonnes of dry agricultural residues per year. Peanut shells will be the primary feedstock, with olive pits evaluated as a potential secondary feedstock subject to technical testing and certification eligibility.

TECHNOLOGY
From Agricultural Residues to Biochar
Selected agricultural residues are processed under controlled, oxygen-limited thermal conditions. The planned industrial system focuses on process control, energy efficiency, syngas utilization, emissions management and traceable production data. Feedstocks will be introduced only after technical characterization and pyrolysis validation.

PRODUCTS & CO-PRODUCTS
From Agricultural Residues to High-Value Carbon Products
NV CARBON is developing an integrated biomass conversion platform designed to transform agricultural residues into high-value carbon products through controlled pyrolysis. Product specifications and commercial availability will be confirmed following commissioning, process optimization and independent laboratory testing.
PRIMARY PRODUCT — UNDER DEVELOPMENT
01 — BIOCHAR
Agricultural Residues. Stable Carbon. Long-Term Value.
Selected agricultural residues are converted through controlled pyrolysis into a stable, carbon-rich biochar designed for agricultural, soil and selected industrial applications. Peanut shells are the primary feedstock for the first Osmaniye project.
Target applications
Soil improvement • Growing media • Organic fertilizer formulations • Carbon removal projects • Selected industrial applications
Development target
High fixed-carbon biochar with consistent quality and traceable biomass origin.

02 — PYROLYSIS OIL / BIO-OIL
Recovering Additional Value from Biomass
Depending on the final process configuration, condensable fractions generated during pyrolysis may be recovered as pyrolysis oil. Potential applications will be determined according to chemical characterization, process configuration and applicable regulatory requirements.

From Biogenic Carbon to Durable Carbon Removal
Plants capture atmospheric CO₂ as they grow. When agricultural residues are converted into biochar under appropriate conditions, a portion of that biogenic carbon can be stabilized for long periods instead of rapidly returning to the atmosphere. NV CARBON is developing an MRV-ready pathway from the design stage.
CO₂ → Agricultural Biomass → Pyrolysis → Biochar → Traceable End Use → Durable Carbon Storage
Carbon removal quantities and eligibility will be determined through actual production data, lifecycle assessment and applicable certification methodologies.
TRACEABILITY & LIFECYCLE
Designed for Evidence-Based Carbon Removal
NV CARBON is developing a traceable pathway covering feedstock origin, production data, biochar quality, transport and eligible end use. Each stage is intended to be supported by documented records and independently verifiable evidence.

Lifecycle Assessment, MRV and Independent Verification
Project emissions—including feedstock collection, transport, preparation, pyrolysis, energy use and biochar delivery—are intended to be quantified through lifecycle assessment. Carbon removal volumes and durability will be determined using actual operating data, representative sampling, laboratory testing, MRV and the requirements of the selected certification methodology.
Subject to product quality, regulatory compliance and certification eligibility, biochar is intended for traceable applications including soil improvement, growing media and biochar-based agricultural formulations. No carbon removal credit will be claimed before the applicable evidence and independent verification requirements are met.
RESOURCE EFFICIENCY
Designed for Circular Energy Use
The planned process is designed to recover and utilize pyrolysis gases generated during carbonization, reducing dependence on external thermal energy after start-up where technically feasible. Process heat integration and emissions control will form part of the final engineering design.

SCALING CARBON REMOVAL
From Regional Residues to a Scalable Platform
The Osmaniye project is being developed as NV CARBON's first commercial facility with a planned processing capacity of approximately 10,000 tonnes of dry agricultural residues per year. Peanut shells will be the primary feedstock. Olive pits and other regional residues may be introduced only after characterization, pyrolysis trials and confirmation of certification eligibility.
