What is biochar?
“Biochar is a stable, carbon-rich form of charcoal
that can be applied to agriculture land as part of
ergonomic or environmental management.”


Source: Sparkes, J and Stoutjesdijk, P 2011, Biochar: implications for
agricultural productivity, ABARES tehcnical report 11.6, Australian Bureau of
Agricultural and Resource Economices and Sciences, Canberra. pvii
How is biochar made?

Biochar is produced using waste products
(biomass) heated with little or no oxygen.
INSERT some sort of visual here……..
Why should I be interested in
                         biochar?
Potential advantages of biochar include:
• Turn local waste products into biochar
• Improved soil quality
• Improved crop yield
• Reduce the need for nitrogen fertilisers
• Decreased green house gas emissions
Opportunities for our
                          community
• Use local green, agricultural and animal waste as
  a fuel source
• Start up our own biochar plant
• Sell biochar and secondary bio-fuels
• Use of biochar by our council on gardens and
  parks
• Local farmers could reduce fertiliser use and
  improve crop yield
• Research centre for biochar
Challenges
•   High cost to purchase machinery
•   High cost to produce biochar
•   Availability of suitable fuel sources
•   No national guidelines
•   More research is needed into production,
    application and long-term effects
Is there are future for biochar in
                 our community?
•   Small scale trials
•   Funding applications
•   Seek research partnership
•   Consultation with local residents, agricultural and
    industrial community

  • 2. What is biochar? “Biochar is a stable, carbon-rich form of charcoal that can be applied to agriculture land as part of ergonomic or environmental management.” Source: Sparkes, J and Stoutjesdijk, P 2011, Biochar: implications for agricultural productivity, ABARES tehcnical report 11.6, Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economices and Sciences, Canberra. pvii
  • 3. How is biochar made? Biochar is produced using waste products (biomass) heated with little or no oxygen. INSERT some sort of visual here……..
  • 4. Why should I be interested in biochar? Potential advantages of biochar include: • Turn local waste products into biochar • Improved soil quality • Improved crop yield • Reduce the need for nitrogen fertilisers • Decreased green house gas emissions
  • 5. Opportunities for our community • Use local green, agricultural and animal waste as a fuel source • Start up our own biochar plant • Sell biochar and secondary bio-fuels • Use of biochar by our council on gardens and parks • Local farmers could reduce fertiliser use and improve crop yield • Research centre for biochar
  • 6. Challenges • High cost to purchase machinery • High cost to produce biochar • Availability of suitable fuel sources • No national guidelines • More research is needed into production, application and long-term effects
  • 7. Is there are future for biochar in our community? • Small scale trials • Funding applications • Seek research partnership • Consultation with local residents, agricultural and industrial community
