Biochar is a byproduct of charcoal and is obtained by thermal gasification or pyrolysis of charcoal. Biochar
improves the soil quality thereby reducing green house gas emissions and also possesses the potential to
make more attractive business for renewable energy, fueling the global market for biochar in the coming
years. Moreover, biochar offers wide applicability for both energy and non-energy purposes. It is used as a
feedstock in the power plants and also for electricity generation. The non-energy uses of biochar include
its use for soil amendment, carbon sequestration, mine reclamation, adsorbents, agriculture, gardening
and others.
The Major factor driving this market is the ability of biochar to increase soil fertility by carbon
sequestration. Addition of biochar helps to maintain the soil carbon level and increase yields.
Certain benefits from engineered biochars in agriculture sector are as follows:
Improves water holding capacity of roots
Improves fertilizer holding capacity of roots
Improves the biological productivity of soil
Protection against soil diseases
These factors have largely benefited the agricultural sector and have proved the value of biochar product.
The improved fertility of soil has several benefits such as high rate of growth of plants, less use of fertilizer,

less pollution from the fertilizer and cost savings by reduced fertilizers utilization. These features will
encourage the farmers to use biochar and act as driver for the global biochar market. As the biochar
production technology is in its early stages of development, there are certain associated issues such as
biochar handling, biochar system deployment and feedstock procurement. Moreover, biochar is a
flammable substance and there are certain public safety concerns for its handling. The opportunity
associated with biochar lies with its environmental friendly characteristics such as carbon sequestration,
water holding capacity and soil enhancement. Additionally, the biochar industry can also provide
opportunity for employment and hence poverty alleviation, alongwith the provision of better quality food,
thus ensuring better health of the consumers. .Further, the standard biochar system will act as an
opportunity for the global biochar market as a standardized system can be used for different business
segments such as agricultural or forest.
The global biochar market segmentation is provided based on geography, technology, feedstock and
application. The geographical coverage includes North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Rest of the World
(RoW). The technological segmentation is provided based on the process and equipment. The major
biochar production processes are: fast, intermediate and slow pyrolysis, gasification and microwave
pyrolysis whereas the continuous and batch pyrolysis kiln, cookstove and gasifiers are the equipment
involved in the biochar production. Forestry waste, biomass plantation, agricultural waste and animal
manure are the major feedstocks for the biochar.
