Global biochar producers

Pyrolysis operators converting forestry, agricultural and sludge residues into durable carbon for soils, industry and carbon-removal markets.

10/44
Measure shownBiochar capacity (t/yr)— unit: tonnes of biochar produced / year

Annual biochar production capacity. Bigger tiles mean more pyrolysis throughput of forestry, agricultural or sludge residues.

Tile size and colour both scale with the value (060,000 tonnes of biochar produced / year). Hover a tile for its own figures.
