Claims   >

Approximately 35% by weight of the dry feed material is converted to a 
high-carbon char material, which is a product in its own right as a soil amendment, 
fuel or filtration media. As proof of concepte, BEST Energies Australia has a 
fully operational 300 kg/hr demonstration plant ... 

BEST Energies has been actively developing the market for Agri-char in the 
agricultural sector ... The results from initial pot trials were so successful, 
with some char-amended treatments yielding 266% of the controls, that field 
trials have been initiated ...

BEST's slow pyrolysis technology is actually "carbon negative" ...

The Agrichar products produced from renewable biomass sources via the BEST 
pyrolysis process contain a stabilized form of carbon that has potential to 
generate a sustainable increase in soil carbon ...
