Biochar
From by-product to value-add resource
Carbonization is a process known to man for centuries: through controlled pyrolysis, it is possible to transform vegetable waste into coal. Modern technologies have made it possible to enhance and improve this process: through a low energy consumption plant, it is possible to introduce a plant matrix and transform it into an incredibly versatile material: Biochar.
​
Biochar is a product that, depending on the input raw material, is able to cover a range of more than 50 different uses, including: ​
​
-
Animal husbandry (feed additive / bedding / compost, pesticides)
-
Soil improver (fertilizer, humidity regulator, pesticide barriers, substrate additive)
-
Filtering (water treatment, microfilters, macro filters, carbon filters, CO2 control filters, air filters for the environment)
-
Industrial use (semiconductors, plastics, carbon fibres, batteries, metal reduction, paints)
-
Cosmetics (soaps, creams, deodorants, natural additives)
-
Other (food coloring, food preservation, thermal insulation, protection from electromagnetic radiation
​
Our area of expertise covers the entire Biochar supply chain: in this way we can enhance the product at all stages of its life cycle.
