Soil and Flame
Malaysian biochar projects. Where farm waste gets a second life and carbon goes back to the ground where it belongs.
REGISTERED, RATED AND ENDORSED BY
PROJECT OVERVIEW
Welcome to Reclimate’s biochar projects across Greater Klang Valley, Central Spine, Borneo and Northern Borneo, where farm waste gets a second life and carbon goes back to the ground where it belongs.
Across these regions of Malaysia, our projects turn agricultural and woody residues into biochar, transforming underutilized biomass into a valuable resource. Our signature “Pit-to-Plot” approach keeps things refreshingly simple: using in-soil pyrolysis to convert biomass into biochar, without relying on complex reactors or sophisticated machinery.
Each pit becomes a small carbon storage system, transforming biomass that might otherwise be burned into a more stable form of carbon while helping improve soil fertility and water retention. Together, these projects demonstrate how locally adapted approaches can contribute to carbon removal and more sustainable agricultural practices.
Every site is a living lab, bringing farmers, researchers and local communities into the process. Audited by CERES-CERT AG and registered under Carbon Standards International, the Greater Klang Valley project is Malaysia’s first artisanal biochar project to issue verified carbon credits.
Pit-to-Plot
THE SCIENCE
Simple yet impactful
Local farm waste becomes carbon-storing biochar where it is produced — directly in the soil, using low-tech pyrolysis pits. Affordable, replicable, community-driven.
Energy Efficiency
No Fossil Fuels
Low-input, high-output method relying solely on controlled pyrolysis of on-site biomass.
Latest Soil Results
+15–25% increase in soil organic carbon. +20% improvement in moisture retention within one cropping cycle. Up to 50% reduced fertiliser dependency, with improved crop resilience.
Living Lab
Real Field Conditions
Our site and partner smallholder farms act as testbeds where biochar is produced, applied and monitored in the field, not the lab.
1:5 Ratio
Net CDR-to-feedstock
For every 5 tonnes of woody waste, 1 tonne of stable carbon is sequestered — low operating cost, high scalability for distributed rural systems.
Carbon Capture Data
Each soil pit yields biochar locking away an estimated 2–3 tonnes of CO₂e per hectare, depending on feedstock composition and burn conditions.
Digital MRV
Hybrid Verification
On-ground sampling combined with data monitoring, for transparency and accountability through to issuance.
SCALABILITY
Simplicity Drives Scale
Regional Potential
Up to 50,000 tCO₂e a year
Expanded across available woody waste streams in the Klang Valley, this model could offset up to 50,000 tonnes CO₂e annually, cutting emissions from waste burning and landfill accumulation.
Modular Design
Scalable, Adaptable, Accessible
Fits farms of any size. Works with plantation waste, garden trimmings and crop residues. Requires minimal training and equipment investment.
