We turn waste into the input for restoration.
Municipal sludge and urban organic waste are a disposal problem for utilities. Biotech 22 receives it as its primary raw material, and to convert it into K2 engineered compost, the technology we use to restore degraded soil.
Waste reception
Municipal sewage sludge and urban organic waste, accepted under utility contracts. The disposal problem becomes our supply chain.
Stabilization
Sorting, dewatering, controlled stabilization and strict decontamination. The feedstock is prepared for biological transformation.
K2 bioprocessing
Microbial inoculation. The output is K2 engineered compost, patented, with seven genera of naturally occurring soil bacteria, active 10+ years in treated soil.
Land restoration
K2 deployed on landfills, mining sites, embankments, degraded farmland. Soil indicators recover within 1-3 years.
Climate-positive cycle
Greenhouse gas emissions from sludge combustion and landfill are avoided. Additional atmospheric carbon is sequestered in restored soil. Vegetation re-established. Aligned with EU Green Deal and Mission Soil objectives.
