Biochar production
On site pyrolysis of residue into durable carbon and a soil amendment.
Because it solves two problems at once. Residue that is uneconomic to haul to a distant buyer becomes a storable, saleable product, and the char returns to the soil as an amendment that helps degraded ground hold water and nutrients. The carbon in it also resists decomposition for a very long time.
What this includes
- Pyrolysis unit sizing against residue volume
- Feedstock preparation and drying
- Batch process control and temperature recording
- Mass in and mass out recording per batch
- Soil application rates and incorporation
- Carbon claim documentation for buyers
- What you receiveOutput
- Biochar produced with per batch records of feedstock, mass and process conditions
- When you need itTiming
- From the first harvest of the fast layer, typically year three.
Producing char without batch records. A carbon claim needs feedstock mass, output mass and process conditions, and these cannot be reconstructed later.
