PYREG plants are EBC type-certified. This is a voluntary, uniform and verifiable industry standard for climate-protecting biochar production in Europe. With the growing sales figures in North America and Asia, we are introducing these quality...
People prefer ‘natural’ strategies to reduce atmospheric carbon
The "more natural" the higher the acceptance of a CCS method such as biochar production. A cross-disciplinary collaboration at Cornell University found that a majority of the U.S. public is supportive of soil carbon storage as a climate change...
Taking responsibility for CO2 from biomass
Biogenic residues, such as those released for disposal in industrial processes as well as those that have so far simply been left to rot (e.g. wood cuttings), pose a considerable climate problem: they contain carbon. In conventional disposal...
Biochar as Negative Emission Technology (NET)
