One of the main advantages of Biochar Carbon Removal is its holistic business case: players in the #BCR industry, like Novocarbo, are now building entire #circular economies, allowing them to offer individual products to divers customers. ♻️ The economic cycle begins with the recycling of biomass, which would normally be incinerated as waste or left to rot, into biochar. This allows us to provide a #WasteManagement solution for, for example, the food industry, which would otherwise need to dispose shells or fruit pits. The #biochar produced can be added to soils, where it retains water, stores nutrients, and favors humus formation, or to building materials such as concrete and asphalt. 🔥 The biochar production releases #RegenerativeHeat that can be used as warm water, hot water, or process steam for own industrial activities or supplied to nearby industries or municipal utilities. 📃 Finally, we can generate #CarbonCredits from the long-term application of biochar and thus the sequestration of CO2 from the atmosphere. This additional income helps us scale up faster and subsidize our products, making it possible to bring biochar to as many customers and carbon sinks as possible. 👉 As a result, customers can select the appropriate product(s) from the portfolio of biochar producers: Waste-Management-as-a-Service, Heat-as-a-Service, Biochar, and Carbon Credits.

How Biochar Turns Waste into Profit What if we could recycle waste and turn it into a high-value product? Biochar does just that! Biochar is made through a simple yet powerful process: Biomass waste (like agricultural residue, food scraps, and even manures) is heated in a controlled environment, without oxygen. This heat drives out moisture and volatile compounds, which are captured and used as fuel to power the process itself. The result? A stable, valuable byproduct – Biochar – that can be used for energy, agriculture, construction, and more! By adopting Biochar technology, businesses can reduce waste, lower energy costs, and contribute to a cleaner environment. Plus, the energy generated from this process has a density close to coal, making it a viable alternative energy source. Ready to transform waste into profit? Let’s chat about how Biochar technology can work for your business and the environment!

😎 Biochar: an up-and-coming heavyweight in carbon credits. But why is it suddenly becoming so damn popular? For starters, it opens new pathways to a circular economy. What is biochar and how is it made? When organic plant matter (biomass) decays in a natural environment it releases stored CO₂. Turning biomass into biochar prevents the process of decay, creating permanent storage for CO₂. We do this by pyrolysis (heating the biomass at high temperatures in a low oxygen environment). The resulting biochar is nutrient-rich and so can be used as a fertiliser to improve soil health – and increase crop yields. Category Type 5 of the Oxford Offsetting Principles (carbon removal with long-lived storage) Evaluation 🧓 High durability with carbon being stored for 100+ years 🚮 High additionality by using waste biomass ⚖ High measurability as it’s possible to measure the carbon content of the biomass being used ‼ Some risk due to a lack of research into the negative environmental consequences of spreading biochar 😍 High co-benefits from using the end-product, i.e. biochar Example climate projects featured in Lune’s curated library: 🧻 Wakefield BioChar: manages waste products from a pulp and paper mill to store 2.9 tCO₂ per tonne of biochar for hundreds of years. 🥜 Pyrocal: uses waste from organic feedstock such as macadamia shells and used pine wood pallets to create high-quality biochar. Each ton of biochar is over 80% pure carbon and safely stores 2.9 tCO₂ for hundreds of years. Bonus fact: Did you know it’s also the only carbon removal you can use in cat litter 🙀 What’s the most intriguing use of biochar you’ve heard of so far? #CarbonOffsetting #Biochar #CircularEconomy #ESG #ClimateProjects

Microalgae-Based Wastewater Treatment: A Circular Approach for Sustainability and Carbon Capture Harnessing the power of microalgae in wastewater treatment is a game-changer for sustainability. 🧪The process begins with a Pure Culture Maintenance Lab, feeding into both indoor and outdoor inoculation ponds, where nutrients, CO₂, and water facilitate algae growth. 📍Algae in the cultivation pond treats wastewater while absorbing CO₂. The harvested algae undergoes centrifugation, separating biomass from water. Final treatment involves membrane separation for higher solids concentration. 🧪💧The resulting biomass can be stored or further processed, while the treated water can be recycled, completing a circular, eco-friendly system. 🌏 Not only does this model efficiently treat wastewater, but it also provides an opportunity for carbon credits through CO₂ sequestration and waste valorization. 👉This approach represents the future of sustainable industries, blending wastewater treatment, carbon capture, and resource recovery into one holistic process. #CarbonCredits #MicroalgaeTech #Sustainability #WastewaterTreatment #CircularEconomy #ClimateAction #algae #microalgae

Biochar is a type of charcoal made from biomass (wood, agricultural waste, etc) through a process called PYROLYSIS. Pyrolysis refers to the heating of biomass in the absence of oxygen, producing a stable form of carbon that can persist in soil for thousands of years. Biochar is capable of: 🍀Storing carbon in soil for centuries, reducing atmospheric CO2 levels and mitigating climate change. 🍀Improving soil structure, increasing water retention, and providing a habitat for beneficial microorganisms, leading to healthier and more productive soil. 🍀Absorbing pollutants and heavy metals, making it a potential tool for cleaning contaminated soils. 🍀Increasing crop yields, improving soil fertility, and reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers. 🍀Biochar can be made from waste biomass, reducing waste disposal costs and the environmental impacts associated with decomposition. Overall, biochar offers a promising solution for sustainable soil management, carbon sequestration, and environmental stewardship. 📍Like, comment, and repost if you found this informative. 📍Don't forget to give us a follow for more sustainability themed content! #DidYouKnow #greenfacts #sustainability #sgeinitiative

Cities like New York and San Francisco are adopting Anaerobic digestion for cleaner, sustainable waste management. 🌱 Anaerobic digestion is a process where bacteria break down organic waste in the absence of oxygen to produce biogas (methane) and nutrient-rich fertilizer. How it works: Organic material is placed in a sealed digester, where bacteria break it down to produce biogas, which can be used for energy, and digestate, a natural fertilizer. Why it helps: Reduces landfill waste Produces renewable energy Creates eco-friendly fertilizer Want more insights like this?
