Woody Biomass Burial (WBB) Monitoring Solution
Woody biomass burial (WBB) is a form of carbon sequestration, and this hardware allows for the monitoring and characterization of the decomposition of the buried wood. This is tested on pits with 100,000 tons of wood. During the pilot study, we monitor the buried wood to characterize its decomposition. Ideally, there is no decomposition, and the carbon remains as wood. We designed and developed a complete IoT solution to monitor the underground conditions with rugged sensor suites capturing temperature, humidity, soil moisture, light, oxygen, methane, CO, NO2, and alcohol. The WBB pilot study is at a remote location, so the monitoring system has off-grid power and logs data to the cloud through a cellular connection.
