About biochar
Biochar is a carbon rich form of charcoal specifically designed for soil application to improve plant growth and health. Biochar is a very stable substance that is not broken down in soils, offering long-term soil benefits.
The biochar we use is made from pyrolysis of organic waste stream biomass heated in the absence of oxygen. The stability of biochar in the soil (from 50-600 years) has important implications for reducing atmospheric CO2 and other greenhouse gasses, including nitrous oxide and methane, enabling a positive impact on climate change.
The company manufactures and sells biochar to private sector, governmental and industrial markets. Biochar Now is the current manufacturing leader of high-quality biochar.
Biochar Now spent the last four years successfully developing its manufacturing and emissions compliance technologies that are now patented. The company is currently scaling to meet the demands of large and diverse markets. Market examples are agriculture; mercury removal from power plant stacks; river spill remediation; water sequestration for droughts; nutrient pollution removal from rivers and lakes; lawn and landscape; strength filler for recycled plastics and more.
