Char Biocarbon
CharTech Solutions’ proprietary High Temperature Pyrolysis (HTP) technology transforms challenging organic waste streams (biomass, biosolids, digestate) into renewable and valuable outputs by heating these materials at high temperatures in the absence of oxygen. The remaining solids are converted into a solid carbon product called biocarbon, also known as Biochar. These high-value biocarbons help offset the use of resource intensive alternatives, and fix carbon long-term in a stable form from organic feedstock to reduce GHG emissions. CHAR Biocarbon products help industries save money, while decarbonizing for a circular economy. Biocarbon can be used as a traditional Biochar Soil Amendment/ fertilizer product, as a biocoal product (CleanFyre), or as an adsorption media supplement and pollutant filter (SulfaCHAR).
Produced from organic feedstocks through the HTP process, there are many benefits of generating BIOCHAR for both the producer and the environment. When used as a fertilizer or as a soil amendment product, the benefits include:
- Retains water in dry soils
- Improves soil structure
- Sequesters carbon in the ground
- Holds nutrients in the soil
- Reduces odor
- Can generate Carbon Dioxide – CO2 Removal Credits (CORCs)
Biochar & CORCs: With recent industry policy updates, companies producing Biochar from all organic feedstocks with varying levels of fixed carbon are now eligible for CORCs/carbon credits. In addition, projects have the ability to pre-sell the first year of biochar carbon credits (pre-CORCs) to generate pre-construction revenue.
