Certification journey

We track the progress of a carbon removal project through our certification framework. This roadmap moves from a preliminary assessment of eligibility toward full certification under the Puro Standard.

The facility has successfully completed the preliminary assessment conducted by the Puro team, meeting the minimum criteria for listing as a future supplier on Puro.earth.

The facility has passed the third-party facility audit, verifying compliance with the methodology, as well as output audit, verifying the net volume of removed carbon. The facility has been issued CORCs and continues its removal operations, as well as monitoring and reporting to Puro.earth.

Development status

We monitor a facility’s maturity as it moves toward industrial-scale operations. This status identifies whether a project is in development, under construction, or actively removing carbon from the atmosphere.

The feasibility study is ongoing. The Supplier is still collecting data to prove the concept.

The front-end engineering and design are ready and methodology compliant. There is a clear plan to monitor and measure. The LCA is up to the needed quality level or subject to small improvements. The technology has been used before. There are commercial agreements with the relevant business partners of the facility.

The facility is fully funded and is being implemented. Relevant infrastructure is being built.

The facility is operating as a carbon removal facility.

More about Tantanoola 1

Based in Tantanoola, South Australia in the heart of the Australian’s Forestry industry ‘Green Triangle’, Roundwood Solutions (RWS) provides sustainable carbon solutions with their biochar product. RWS leverages cutting-edge gasification technology to transform radiata pine waste sourced from the local milling and plantation industries into premium biochar. This process ensures maximum utilization of local biomass resources that would otherwise be underutilized or left to decompose, emitting greenhouse gases.

RWS's biochar boasts a verified H/C ratio of 0.28, a testament to its high-quality carbon structure optimized for soil enhancement and carbon sequestration stability over time.

In alignment with circular economy principles, RWS actively contributes to sustainable practices by converting agricultural residues into a valuable resource shown to improve soil health and productivity. This approach not only reduces waste but also supports local forestry and agricultural sectors, fostering economic resilience and environmental stewardship within the community.

With an initial production capacity of 20,000 CORCs (CO2 Removal Certificates) per year, RWS is committed to scaling its operations to meet growing demand and further advance global sustainability goals. By expanding their biochar production, RWS aims to play a pivotal role in promoting regenerative agriculture and achieving carbon neutrality objectives on a larger scale.

Roundwood Solutions is a timber treatment company providing an environmentally friendly treatment which is the first in Australia to become carbon neutral.
Co-benefits include:
Reduced landfill waste, improved soil health, increased crop yields, reduced fertilizer use, and rural jobs.
