Advanced Potash Technologies

Advanced Potash Technologies (APT) is a mining-meets-agriculture company that is aiming to deeply disrupt the ~$20bn global potassium fertilizer (potash) market by applying a revolutionary process developed at MIT to its several mines distributed around the world. APT has an outstanding combination of technical talent and IP from MIT, a cadre of senior finance & trade professionals, and a very successful exit under their belts from a previous mining venture. Whereas potash is currently produced from rare salt mines buried deep in the earth at disparate locations, APT has a way of making potassium available to plants from feldspar, a widely available mineral type that makes up a large percentage of the earth’s crust. Their resulting potash fertilizer product is chloride-free, can be produced all over the world, involves no by-product or waste generation, is microbiota friendly, and creates double digit percent increases in yield.
