Iranian Company Produces Healthy Biological Compost
“Azad Takin Biology Company was founded in the growth center of Islamic Azad University, Yasouj branch. In previous years, there was an invention called biological production of compost, which is highly different with the other composts produced in Iran and other parts of the world. Our biologically produced composts are free of diseases and heavy and harmful elements,” Reza Kazemi, the managing director of the knowledge-based company told ANA in an interview while participating in the Asreh Omid Event.
Kazemi, who has MS in agricultural engineering, added that their product has been patented and their company signed contracts with Yasouj Municipality.
“In this company, we receive waste and litter created by households and then separate dry materials such as plastic, paper, iron, etc. and finally transfrom sour materials into compost or organic materials. These organic materials are used for agriculture, gardening, and greenhouses,” he added.
“Now, in addition to the production of compost, we plan to create a special environment for each plant separately.That's to say, we are trying to produce a soil with special compounds for each plant. This idea has reached the prototype or the pilot level, and normally for each exhibition, we produce between 300 and 400 kilos to present it in the event. We need facilities to industrialize the prototype so that we can move forward with our ideas," he said.
“In the event, we are going to present two products named biological compost and special cultivation soil. So far, Islamic Azad University has not supported us financially, and we hope that ground will be prepared and facilities will be provided during this event," the engineer added with respect to the Asreh Omid Event.
Kazemi added that in the exhibition different products and technological achievements are displayed.
The managing director of the knowledge-based company further expressed hope that their product will be seen by the university authorities who were taking part in the event, saying, "Every university has lawns, flowersbeds, plants, and trees on their campus, as well as some agricultural pieces of lands and even orchards. So they can use this product. By introducing the company to other companies, Agricultural Jihad Ministry, etc., we can develop and expand our target market.”
The national Asreh Omid Event was held in late May in Tehran’s Grand Mosalla with the participation of 3,000 knowledge-based companies, laboratories, research teams and startups.
