Technical market validation of ERW technology in Ghana

About this project

The goal of this project is to technically validate the Sinc.Earth MRV protocol under Ghanaian soil and climate conditions, so that carbon uptake via Enhanced Rock Weathering (ERW) becomes demonstrable and certifiable via Isometric.Concrete and measurable results:• Measured carbon uptake data (tons CO2/ha) for 3 locations in Ghana during one growing season, in accordance with Isometric requirements• Validated XRF analysis of at least 3 local silicate rock types for chemical composition and safety (Ni, Cr threshold values).• Measured soil fertility (pH, cation exchange capacity (CEC), and nutrient concentrations including Ca, Mg, K) for treated versus untreated plots at 3 locations.• Measured crop yield data (kg/ha dry weight) for treated versus untreated plots.• A complete technical validation report suitable as a basis for a certification application with Isometric.• A documented, export-ready MRV protocol for tropical West Africa.
