Biochar production yields several byproducts that are equally important and versatile.
What are the Byproducts of Biochar? 5 Key Byproducts You Should Know
1. Bio-Oil
Bio-oil is one of the primary byproducts of biochar production.
2. Water
Water is another significant byproduct, often found in the condensable fraction.
3. Noncondensable Gases
Noncondensable gases are released during the pyrolysis process.
4. Wood Vinegar
Wood vinegar is a byproduct that can be separated from the pyrolytic vapor.
5. Biochar
Biochar is the solid product of the pyrolysis process, rich in carbon.
Biochar has multiple uses, including improving soil fertility and enhancing agricultural production.
It can also remove pollutants from soil, water, and gas due to its high adsorption capacity, specific surface area, microporosity, and ion exchange capacity.
Biochar is stable and resistant to microbial decomposition, making it ideal for long-term carbon sequestration.
An emerging application of biochar is its use in supercapacitor electrodes, which has gained significant attention in recent years.
Biochar production from biomass pyrolysis is considered a clean and efficient method for converting agricultural residues, wood wastes, and municipal solid waste into clean energy.
This process helps reduce fossil fuel emissions and plays a major role in the global carbon market.
