Biochar, a charcoal-like material derived from plant biomass, has long been hailed as a promising tool for carbon dioxide removal. However, a new study by Stanford researchers highlights a ...

Biochar's carbon storage potential is undervalued due to outdated assessment methods. Current evaluations often rely on the hydrogen-to-carbon ratio, which overlooks factors like soil type and ...

Biochar alone is not enough to reduce carbon emissions from soil and must be combined with other methods like “commercial nitrogen fertilizer or organic materials like manure or compost ...

In an article recently published in Biochar, researchers critically assessed the widely used two-pool exponential decay model for estimating biochar carbon permanence. They highlighted significant ...

The black, charcoal-like substance holds onto a lot of the carbon in the organic matter it's made from, and can be added to soil to make it healthier. (Claire Palmer/CBC) Biochar is made through a ...

The Pullman, Wash.-based business recently raised $4.5 million and plans to launch the sale of biochar carbon credits. The company last month also announced its move into seven acres of high-tech ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) Biochar is pivotal in a new method for recovering phosphorus from sewage sludge, addressing its limited natural availability. The process involves pyrolysis of ...

This science-based biochar crafted from sewage sludge embodies SoilLogia’s ‘Turning WASTE into WEALTH’ philosophy, supporting net-zero carbon goals while empowering farmers, enhancing soil ...

One project is focused on purchasing carbon credits through the GreenTrees platform in the Lower Mississippi Alluvial Valley (USA). The project aims to reforest more than 400,000 hectares (one million ...
