One of the most actual problems of XXI century is global warming which has a huge impact on climate change and which may cause material raising of the World's water level, dry weather in some regions that would have substantial influence on people and other species on Earth. Global warming is explained by strengthening of greenhouse gases concentration in atmosphere. Taking into account that problem, in 1992, in Rio de Janeiro, at “Earth Summit” the United Nations approved the Framework Convention on Climate Change. This document covers the general principles and measures to fight climate change, which was signed by more than 180 countries. In addition to the said Convention, so called Kyoto Protocol to cover the market tools to decrease the greenhouse gases emission was approved in 1997 in Kyoto.
СО2 emission can be decreased through using of the biological fuel to be an alternative to conventional fuels such, as black coal, fuel-oil residual, diesel fuel, gasoline, etc.
So, in this regard, the Limited Liability Partnership “Ak Kamys” was established in 2009 to produce biological fuel to be made of reed.
There is a plenty of reed in Kurmangazinsky Region, Atyrau Oblast.

- Total square of the plant will be 10 ha. There is an official act. Cadastral number of the land plot is 04-063-027-143.
- Territory, where the reed to be mowed down is more than 25.000 ha. There is an official act. Cadastral number of the land plot is 04-063-037-030.
