About
Takatena Biochar Solutions is a Nanyuki, Kenya-based biochar producer that converts organic waste (sewage and garbage) into biochar via pyrolysis. The company operates an online store selling biochar with explicit CO2-removal claims (e.g. 1,000 kg biochar ≈ 3 t CO2 for $180) and markets itself as Kenya’s first circular waste hub.
