Bamboo cultivation may be the fastest and easiest approach to
Carbon Sequestration. Bamtech will
produce biomass for bacterial conversion to Hydrogen, without energy
input. This “short path Krebs cycle”
will provide annual Carbon credits that are accountable, and which obviate the
need for storage and prevent “Slippage”, in contrast with other Bio mass based
CDM.
It takes about 7-10 years to get a large Bamboo Plantation established. During
that time there is a lot of work to do in order to introduce Bamboo to American
Agro Business. The Project is designed to address that fact, and to provide a
site where some of that work can be done. One such site is located in Kern
County CA. adjacent to large scale cotton operations, along side of I-5, near
Perhaps of equal importance to the site work is the political education
function of the project which will promote the acceptance of large scale
Bamboo, in a sea of competing materials.
Bambooisgrass.com d.b.a. Bamtech, is an R&D based aggregator of Bamboo Technology; with an environmentally sustainable and beneficial plan to incorporate Bamboo silviculture into American Agro business.
Bamboo technology is quickly becoming the "next big thing". New applications for Bamboo derived Food, Fiber, Fuel, Medicines, Building Materials, Paper, Engineered Composites, Nano Tech Films, and Air and Water Pollution Remediation, are now being developed. Bamtech will be promoting the next generation of eco friendly innovations in conjunction with regionally diverse joint partners and investors.
Bamtech is working on the
protocols for the first Bamboo based Certified Carbon Credit (CDM) for the “Cap
and Trade” Market, with our partners at the Yunnan Green Environment
Development Foundation in
Bamtech is developing water treatment systems that can improve the lives of the half of the world population that does not have access to clean water.
Bamtech is a investment for a better world.
Bamboo is such a valuable plant that a vertically integrated company that has sufficient raw material can operate in simultaneous divisions that emphasize different aspects of Bamboo Technology.
We intend to operate as:
1. A Carbon Credit producer and marketing company.
Bamboo can become the "Gold Standard of Carbon Credits", and we are working with our Chinese partners to develop the first Market for Bamboo CDMs. The market for all CDM is about $100 billion this year, and very little of that money is coming to The USA. We will start to attract the market when we have an annual Carbon Credit, that guarantees to obviate the necessity for storage and the concern over "slippage".
We will offer low cost verifiable Annual Carbon Credits that are efficient and sustainable. The short time frame will allow credit buyers more flexibility than other types of CDM; at a lower cost. The by product of the carbon credit is pure Hydrogen which can be used to power electric generators, or fuel cells, and lignin, a high quality soil amendment.
2. As an adjunct our Carbon Credit operation, we propose to supply water purveyors with a sustainable supply of Bio Filter Media with low cost advantages. We will develop a series of bamboo applications for water purification, and desalinization. The pressing need for clean water is one of the most critical issues facing society, and the application of bamboo technology can help provide low cost sustainable water supplies.
3. We are also developing a whole range of Building Materials, which could be “outsourced” to established manufacturers, under our label. "Plyboo" has been demonstrated to be stronger and 5 times more productive than fir plywood. "Bamlams" are stronger than timber beams, and woven bamboo can replace fiberglass and steel in composits. Bamtech can develop high quality low cost alternatives to many common components.
4. Organic Bamboo textiles are another of the products that we are developing with Chinese companies...we will be process and design consultants for our proprietary product lines.
All of these projects lead to commercial scale applications, and we are working to develop viable business models that will offer investors a way to participate in the latest Bamboo Technologies.
