Turning waste into clean assets:
Carbon Capture & Water

in One Solution
We use revolutionary biotechnology
that captures CO₂, cleans wastewater and transforms it into valuable resources.
Carbon capture &

Why Bio Clean Carbon?
There is a Carbon & Wastewater Crisis
> Global temperatures exceed 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels in 2024.
> To stay below the critical 2°C threshold, reducing CO₂ emissions by 100% is no longer sufficient, as residual emissions from other greenhouse gases persist.
> Carbon capture and removal are now essential to stabilize global temperatures.
The Challenge with Current Solutions
> Wastewater treatment facilities account for 3% of global greenhouse gas emissions.
> About 42% of global wastewater is discharged untreated, leading to significant environmental damage.
> Essential resources like Phosphorus are being depleted, while wastewater treatment plants face rising costs associated with pollution and emissions management.
What is Bio Clean Carbon?
A breakthrough nature-based carbon & wastewater purification technology.
Use our bacteria, NordiCyano, to absorb CO₂, Phosphorus, and Nitrogen from wastewater.
Biomass is converted into biochar via pyrolysis, sequestering CO₂ and creating soil-enhancer.
A full-circular solution that captures CO₂ and wastewater nutritions and produces valuable products.
How it works
1
Capturing CO₂ & Nutrients
NordiCyano, grows in wastewater, absorbing CO₂ from the air and P/N from the wastewater-water.
2
Converting Biomass into Biochar
Pyrolysis locks away Carbon and produces biochar that can be used as a soil-enhancer.
3
Closing the Loop
A circular system that turns waste into economic and environmental value.

Bio Clean Carbon in Numbers
7x more CO₂ capture than algae-based solutions
NordiCyano is a hyper-efficient Carbon fixer, absorbing CO₂ at a rate 7x higher than traditional algae, making Carbon capture more effective and scalable.
96% of phosphates and 100% of ammonium are absorbed
By capturing Phosphorus, Ammonium from wastewater, we cut down GHG and nutrition emissions from treatment plants, a major pollution source.
100% nature-based process with no toxic chemicals
Unlike industrial solutions that rely on costly chemicals. We offer a biological solution, using natural microorganisms to purify wastewater and capture CO₂.
Biomass is converted to biochar as soil enhancer and CCUS.
The captured CO2 is locked in biochar, preventing it from re-entering the atmosphere while enriching soil and improving agricultural sustainability.
Revenue generation via carbon credits, biochar & wastewater savings
Bio Clean Carbon reduces environmental harm and creates economic value by selling carbon credits, biochar as a soil-enhancer.

Biochar pioneers participated at Rockstart’s Forward 2025
2 December 2025
We had a fantastic day learning and building our network within the growing European biochar ecosystem at Forward 2025, organized by Rockstart.Henrik Stiesdal, founder of Stiesdal and renewable energy pioneer (often called the “godfather of wind power”), shared insights on biochar, Power-to-X, and floating offshore wind. His Skyclean Technology transforms organic by-products from agriculture, forestry,

24 November 2025
We are proud to announce that Bio Clean Carbon has been selected for the prestigious Closing Loops initiative. This project addresses a critical, previously unsolved challenge: capturing nutrients that are currently discharged into nature and converting them into high-value agricultural fertilizer, while permanently sequestering Co2 from the air. The solution in biochar. The key innovation
