Nando, Thanks for the update. We look forward to seeing your system in operation. We understand ta there are some anaerobic digesters in Europe which add biochar to their feed. It would be

We're developing a horizontal bed kiln, the prototype is nearly ready for testing in upstate New York -> http://biochar.info/?p=en.horizontal_bed_kiln It's generating a lot of regional interest. John

Kim You are walking down the right path. Have discussed this with a number of USA WWTP operators. I think the stated price point is off considerably for many reasons such as the plant buying the

Guys, I read the Executive Summary twice and have a couple thoughts. The last paragraph identifies the economic barrier as the requirement that the biochar cost $66.00 to $80.00 per ton to make the

Nando and list: I also have not read this report thoroughly, but from my scan believe there is no discussion of pore size optimization - nor optimization of much else. They strove for small particle

Ron, Interesting report. I've only had time to scan it, but so far I don't see mention of the amount of micropores in the biochar produced. From what I've read in other papers, maximizing the number

Bob and list, adding a cc I decided not to pay much attention here after reading the first sentence containing “biochar”: Emphasis added: "Biochar is awaste product from thermochemical

Albert, - Stephen Joseph is a grown and intelligent human, quite capable of looking after himself, and as a Designer, - as you can imagine, - I just about live on Google. The reason I got more

Thanks Robert – On another note, have you had a chance to look at the Maryland 2019 GGRA draft plan? Biochar is in it but they have some real misconceptions and limitations. If they are going to

This report was published in January. A big technology push for biochar (489 mentions) in California anaerobic digestion.

Earlier i posted i have a laboratory of my house my dog and me, - me changing the food and carbon input of the dog and observing the reults. Well, why can’t I be part of the Subject, and start

Stephen, On a macro level, are we speaking about how cultural practices effect methane emission reduction. Are grass fed soil biochar's cows the best vehicles for methane reductions .....? Is the

good question My observation is when charcoal on the ground with grass animals will eat both. If you look at the work by Light in South Africa and Flemattii and Dickson in Western Australia the

Geoff you could have easily have done this and given Joey a break. It is called Google. Leng, R. A., Sangkhom Inthapanya, and T. R. Preston. "Methane production is reduced in an

Stephen, Do you see a synergistic combination of biochar and 'X'....that could provide an effective and affordable option for farmers...? For example, would a farmer get a benefit from growing

Ron – Got busy but wanted to provide you the links to Walter Jehne’s. Might be meaningless by now. Again, I have not gotten through the material but others might have more time and interest. 1st

Hi Mike, I would think that the inclusion of x amount of charcoal would reduce Methane by an average amount. To add all sorts of other no doubt wonderful materials to make it Biochar, will increase

List, cc Greta and Shaked Greta - thanks for the added information - which presumably is well known by Jehne. I presume he was referring to methanotrophs - which in soil do convert at least some of

Hi Mike yes and this is what complicates the matter. Stephen
