Biochar, a carbon-rich material produced by pyrolyzing biomass in a low-oxygen environment, offers a wide range of applications across various industries, with its primary use in soil amendment and carbon capture. In agriculture, biochar has gained traction for its ability to enhance soil fertility, increase crop yields, and improve water retention. These properties make it an attractive option for farmers looking to adopt more sustainable practices and reduce their reliance on chemical fertilizers. Additionally, biochar's capacity to sequester carbon for long periods offers a way to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store it in the soil.

The construction industry has also begun to recognize biochar's potential, incorporating it into building materials to enhance insulation properties and reduce the carbon footprint of structures. In wastewater treatment, biochar serves as an effective filtration medium, capable of removing contaminants and improving water quality. The growing interest in carbon credit markets has further bolstered the biochar industry, as companies and governments seek innovative ways to offset their carbon emissions. Biochar production and application offer a verifiable method of carbon sequestration, making it an attractive option for those looking to earn carbon credits.
