Researchers at the Clean Air Research Laboratory of the Korea Institute of Energy Research have developed a process that converts 10 tonnes of livestock manure into biochar (biomass and charcoal) in a ...

Biochar can help turn agricultural waste into clean hydrogen fuel while cutting carbon pollution, according to a new study in the journal Biochar. Researchers report that a simple two stage catalytic ...

Activated carbon and biochar have long been celebrated as workhorses of water purification, materials that latch onto heavy metals, organic pollutants, and other hazards and hold them tight. A new ...

That steady moisture may aid the reactions that make the material harden.

On McGregor Road in Pakenham, Victoria, a crew poured a stretch of footpath that looked like ordinary concrete.

A new review of research suggests that the nature-based technology biochar—a carbon-rich material—could be an important tool to use in agriculture to help mitigate climate change. It's for these ...

A ripe whiff of sludge drifts across the sewage works in Bingen, Germany, as a conveyor belt feeds a stream of semi-dried effluent into a steel container. Behind the container, the treated effluent ...
