EuroChar : Development of technologies for long-term carbon sequestration Energy AwayDay May 22 nd 2012

What is biochar and why we need it? IPCC, 2007 Biochar is the product that is gained when biomass is heated with a limited supply of oxygen in a process called pyrolysis or gasification. Lehmann and Joseph 2009 Biochar for Environmental Management: Science and Technology. Global Biochar potential: the BIG picture

Monitoring of performance of Biochar production: Study of industrial processes and the potential risks of environmental pollution Demonstration of Industrial Biochar production: Produce Biochar at the pilot scale at two industrial plants in Germany and Italy using two different technologies: HTC (Hydrothermal Carbonization) and TC (Thermochemical Carbonization) Life Cycle Analysis of Biochar production and large-scale application for carbon sequestration: Assess the LCA of Biochar use, feedstock production, biomass to Biochar conversion processes and Biochar application pathways Short and long term stability of Biochar focusing on its quality, structure and age: Short term stability of Biochar will be assessed investigating its degradation in soil during laboratory incubation experiments. Long term will be investigating using charcoal from archaeological forest and grassland sites where “dated” charcoal production sites exist Scenario analysis: Evaluate scenarios of large-scale application for C- sequestration, to understand the impact of large scale biochar agricultural application on the climate system Biochar stability in Field Applications: Field experiment in West Sussex (UK) – Biochar application on a willow commercial site: soil efflux of greenhouse gases and impact on yield Metagenomic analysis Chemical and Physical properties of Biochar: Data repository on chemical, physical and biological properties of Biochar. Test phytotoxicity of biochar on a model plant  Arabidopsis experiment

BIOCHAR: Energy production and Improved crop yields During biochar production, liquids and gases are generated that can be used as energy or bioproducts (e.g. food flavouring). Possible energy: heat, electricity, green hydrogen, methane, bio-oils or other liquid and gaseous fuels. NATURE|Vol 442|10 August 2006 Biochar application  BIOMASS production increased
