biochar systems

Environmental pollution is a global phenomenon and troublesome fact that poses a grave risk to all living entities. Via coupling carbonaceous feedstocks with outstanding microbial activity, kinetic experiments were established using the consortium of Proteus mirabilis and Raoultella planticola, biochar-derived sunflower seed husk (SHB) and rice straw (RSB), and their composites, which investigated at 30 […]

El nearshoring o la relocalización de empresas es una oportunidad para el mercado de carbono en México, pues este fenómeno tiene como fin ser proveedor de los Estados Unidos y ese país tiene regulaciones al respecto, por lo que día con día la cadena de valor completa tiene que estar mostrando sus iniciativas para limpiar […]

The first-of-its-kind data highlights biochar’s potential to scale carbon removals as a win-win solution for people and the planet. Biochar can potentially remove up to 6% of global emissions annually – the approximate equivalent of 3 billion tonnes of CO2 or the total emissions of 803 coal-fired power plants in one year. Biochar also has […]

As much as 300 to 500 billion tons of biochar are reported to be in soil, sediment and aquatic habitats in China. The discovery of photocatalytic activity of biochar opens up a new frontier in understanding how this substance affects and regulates geochemical processes related to key environmental elements. However, the biomass sources and pyrolysis […]

The International Biochar Initiative is excited to introduce the biochar industry and broader community to our new logo, brand, and refreshed organizational values. Stemming from IBI’s 15-year history as a trusted network, our new brand identity brings a modern, professional look to our robust programming, resources, and certification standards. “As an IBI co-founder, and biochar […]

El biochar, un derivado carbonado estable producido a partir de biomasa vegetal y/o animal, para su aplicación en agricultura sostenible, puede reducir hasta en un 35 por ciento el uso de fertilizantes químicos en el sector agrícola, estimó Luisa Marín De Block, directora general de General Biochar Systems (GBS), empresa especializada en la fabricación de […]

Abstract Sustainable solutions to the plethora of environmental issues facing us today require sound science as well as actionable technology that is affordable and equitable. Broader awareness of biochar systems emerged from insights of historical soil management of Amerindian populations who modified their soils to remain fertile for centuries, pointing at sustainable improvement of soil […]
