Google announced the launch of a new partnership with waste management solutions startup Vaulted Deep, aimed at removing carbon from the atmosphere, and helping establish a methodology to measure methane emissions reductions.
Spun out of injection well-focused waste management company Advantek in 2023, Vaulted Deep partners with municipalities, industrial operators, and agricultural producers to manage their organic waste that can’t be reused or safely applied to land. The company sequesters sludgy organic wastes, including biosolids, manure, agricultural, food waste, and paper sludge – which would otherwise be incinerated, landfilled, or spread on land, resulting in the release of CO2 back into the atmosphere – and injects the carbon-rich biomass deep underground for permanent storage.
