Completing the Circularity Loop
in GMS Agrifood Systems - from Waste
https://www.arukahcapital.com/carboncast-digital-mrv
Arukah Capital Pte Ltd (“Arukah”) is a Asian project developer spotlighted by Nasdaq subsidiary Puro as one of the emerging regional leaders in Asia. We are pioneering large-scale, high-integrity biochar carbon removal in Southeast Asia, leveraging the region’s agricultural abundance and need for climate adaptation - and a proprietary digital MRV system.
In March, we opened the largest biochar plant in Southeast Asia. This plant is set to deliver our first 1000 tonnes of registered CORCs in 3Q 2025, and an estimated 9~10,000 tonnes of durable carbon removal annually. We have a near-term in-market target to scale to 250,000 tonnes per year and 2.5 million tonnes over the next decade, the largest in our region.
Through programmatic partnerships with leading agribusinesses, we aim to unlock over 1 Gigaton of high integrity, durable carbon removal from waste, $100 million in new climate earnings for local farmers, while building regional self-sufficiency in fertiliser.
1️⃣ Diverting Residue Burning via New Pathways for Circular Economy - Creating value from waste in existing agricultural systems via mature technologies and carbon markets, thus reducing system incentives for burning
2️⃣ Smallholder Farmers at the Heart - 50% gross carbon revenue direct to farmers via digital payments, to our knowledge, is the highest share per tonne in our industry. Smallholders produce 80% of Asia’s food but bear the brunt of climate transition costs - our inclusive model aims to unlock systems-level access across hyper local decentralised waste in multiple countries - bridging at scale into global markets.
3️⃣ Digital Traceability as Enabler - Global market access and trust is underpinned with real-time monitoring from decentralised waste processing to global markets - formal dMRV integration with leading carbon registries including Gold Standard and Nasdaq subsidiary Puro.
🎯 Digital Farmer Payments for Carbon Project Participation: First worldwide integration of real-time biogas sensor data (100% coverage) with verified direct payments to farmers (remotely verifiable), initially deployed in India.
🎯 Global Leadership in Digital MRV for Carbon Markets: Only household biogas solution globally selected for a pioneering digital MRV program with Gold Standard - and one of only 5 globally selected across all methodologies. Our proprietary CarbonCast dMRV is also in a pioneering digital MRV program for biochar with Puro, the largest registry globally for engineered carbon removal, for which Biochar has driven over 90% of global deliveries.
🎯 Regional Leadership - Southeast Asia’s Largest Biochar Plant: In 2025, Arukah opened the region’s largest biochar production facility, processing 60 tonnes of waste feedstock daily and removing approximately 10,000 tCO2e annually.
🎯Scaling from our Region: Arukah is scaling its projects through local partnerships with large scale agribusinesses, and aligned local governments and civil society organisations - initially across Cambodia, India, Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia. We are also exploring expansion to Africa with the appropriate partners.
🔗 API Integration: Direct connection to global carbon registries (Nasdaq/Puro.earth, Gold Standard) for all agriculture waste project types
📊 Real-Time Monitoring: IoT sensors + AI-enabled anomaly detection
💰 Automated Payments: Direct farmer payments via verified digital platforms
🌍 Regional Ready: Multi-language, multi-currency, regulatory compliant
📈 Key Highlight: Biochar at Scale
In the GMS, Arukah has Partnered -
Improve sustainability of agriculture operations as a new revenue stream, without significant balance sheet outlay
Digitally verifiable end to end sustainability
Secure and improve cost of fertiliser access - from waste
Unlock global market access for higher farmer incomes - underpinned by registry-integrated digital MRV and licensed digital payments for assurance of integrity
Secure fertiliser access amidst ongoing supply chain disruptions
Catalyse gigaton-scale climate progress for agriculture from underutilised resources - waste
Scalable, measurable climate impact (via Arukah’s proprietary dMRV platform)
Scalable, measurable smallholder income improvement (via digital payments infrastructure) for poverty alleviation
Systems shift on access to fertiliser (national self sufficiency especially for smaller, poorer countries), and by extension, food security
🏭 Partner on a Biochar Plant: By aggregating 60 tonnes/day of agricultural waste biomass
🌱 Scale Food Security with Biochar-based Fertiliser: Partner with us to optimise - and use - new biochar fertiliser mixes for local crops and soil conditions. And in turn scale up regional self sufficiency and smallholder access in this critical resource for farming yields - in a region where smallholders drive 80% of food production.
📊 Build up Regional Biochar Testing Capabilities: Technical assistance to meet global standards for biochar testing - Asia is not yet regionally self sufficient. This could start within the GMS.
👥 Empower 100 Million Smallholders: Target reach across Global South - scale up project financing with us to reach this measurable and achievable goal.
🔄 Remove 200,000+ tCO2e: Potential scale of each market, annually
