プロジェクト概要

The Alcom-01 Nueva Ecija project converts waste rice husks into biochar in Palayan City, Nueva Ecija, Philippines. The team retrofitted a mothballed gasifier and routes excess process heat to adjacent grain-drying units. Biochar is supplied to nearby farmers and used as a soil amendment. The developer, Alcom, is a Singapore-based renewable energy and carbon project developer focused on biochar.
The project removes carbon by producing biochar through pyrolysis and storing it in soils rather than using it as a fuel. The stored carbon is designed to remain stable over a 100-year horizon, supported by material stability criteria for biochar. The feedstock is rice husk from existing mill stockpiles. The process combusts pyrolysis gas and recovers heat for the kiln and grain dryers, improving overall energy efficiency. Reported co-benefits include local employment, lower black carbon relative to open furnaces, and improved soil properties in trials.
Alcom reports this is the first biochar project in the Philippines and operates it with an 18-person local team. A joint venture with the provincial government grants Alcom exclusive rights to the carbon credits. Alcom’s company mission is to decarbonize the rice industry by creating a fully circular model of energy use, minimizing rice husk and straw waste by generating green energy and electricity, organic fertilizers and pesticides, and biochar.
