Description
Standard Biocarbon’s biochar and carbon capture facility in Enfield.
Production is scheduled to commence in Q1 2024.
The facility will produce 16,000 cubic yards of biochar and capture 3,000 tons of carbon a year.
Biochar, a charcoal-like material, is produced by heating organic matter to an extremely high temperature in a low-oxygen environment. The biochar can then store carbon for up to thousands of years. By putting biochar back into the earth, the carbon is permanently removed.
