From the ground up.
Vaulterra leverages Enhanced Rock Weathering to remove atmospheric carbon dioxide and support farmers.
Vaulterra works with farmers to…
Promote soil health and crop yield
Our basalt-based soil conditioner releases beneficial macro- and micro-nutrient into the soil, controls pH, and fosters crop resiliency.
Securely remove atmospheric CO2
As basalt dissolves, a process called Enhanced Rock Weathering (ERW) takes place. ERW removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and converts it to bicarbonate.
Gain access to additional revenue
After removing carbon dioxide from the air, we help farmers access Carbon Offsets to increase their revenue. Additionally, our soil conditioner can improve crop yields and help reduce costs associated with fertilizer use.
PROMOTE SOIL HEALTH AND CROP YIELD
Basalt-based soil conditioner
Our conditioner is a finely-milled basalt powder. Basalt is a volcanic rock that can help aerate soil, which improves water infiltration, root development, and nutrient uptake.
Nutrients for soil
Increase macro- and micro-nutrient density.
Crop yield
Increase
crop yields.
Soil health
Regenerate topsoil and improve permeability.
Regulate pH
Basalt can balance soil pH and replace agricultural lime.
SECURELY REMOVE ATMOSPHERIC CO2
Enhanced Rock Weathering
In nature, rock weathering helps to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere. When water and CO2 combine, they form carbonic acid, which reacts with basalt and other rocks that compose the Earth’s surface.
This interaction transforms CO2 into bicarbonate (HCO3-) effectively storing CO2 in a more stable form for tens of thousands of years. By crushing rocks and increasing their surface area, we can accelerate this process.
The mining industry already engages in rock crushing as part of its daily operations. Vaulterra can repurpose their unused product to perform ERW.GIVE FARMERS ACCESS TO ADDITIONAL REVENUE
Carbon Offsets
First and foremost, when farmers partner with Vaulterra, they receive safe, reliable material that can help increase crop yield. In addition, Vaulterra enables farmers to receive additional revenue by selling high-quality carbon offsets cultivated on their farms.
