Biochar: What is it?

A sustainable form of charcoal made from organic waste, offering a wide variety of benefits and uses:

  • Animal health
  • Carbon capture
  • Carbon credits
  • Construction industry
  • Odour control
  • Soil improvement
  • Tree health
  • Water treatment

At Aston University we have been researching pyrolysis, the thermal process used to produce biochar, since the 1970s.

If you are involved in the biochar supply chain and would like to be included in the next version of the guide email the Editor, Irene Watkinson at [email protected].
