The times are changing

As of this month I have begun pursuing a career as an entrepreneur. No details are finalised BUT several people have joined and our buisnessplan is in the making. Some market analysis has been done as well.

The direct connection of this venture to biochar is still unclear, although I can recognize some apparent synergies. If you are interested in NIR spectroscopy of solids or liquids hit me up on for example twitter where I go under @TobySpruceMt

China and biochar

Why do I get the feeling that when a chinese person hears the word "small business" he or she is not applying the same mindset as a westerner?

Anyhow, enough of my philosophy lesson. Here is a "small" business from Beijing, China focusing on a variety of uses for the biochar they produce. Manufacturing as well as R&D is on their list of endeavours. They have had great success in using biochar as a purifier of heavy-metal polluted soils.
