On a site next to a sawmill in Waverly, Virginia, a startup takes sawdust and offcuts from the mill and heats it up to turn it into biochar, a material that can store carbon for hundreds or thousands ...

A growing body of research suggests that combining biochar with other soil amendments such as compost, manure, or fertilizers may improve soil health ...

A new review of emerging research suggests that biochar, a carbon-rich material produced from biomass, could play an important role in making 3D ...

A researcher cups a handful of biochar, a kind of advanced charcoal that can sequester carbon and provide other environmental benefits in Coleraine on Sept. 19.

Researchers have found that most biochar fed to dairy cows survives the digestive process and remains highly stable, meaning it could be applied to fields through manure and act as a long-term carbon ...

The food that makes it to your plate is but a fraction of what actually grew in a field somewhere. Cassava, corn, wheat, rice — all critical crops produce waste biomass that farmers might be burning ...

Scientists have found that most biochar fed to cattle survives digestion and returns in manure, where it may help store carbon in soil.

Scientists found that biochar doesn’t just capture pollutants, it actively destroys them using direct electron transfer. This newly recognized ability accounts for up to 40% of its cleaning power and ...
