Putting BIOCHAR to work

Biochar improves soil structure, retains nutrients and enhances water holding capacity, reducing fertiliser loss and supporting long-term agricultural productivity.

Biochar’s natural filtration properties remove organic contaminants from wastewater, offering a sustainable and effective treatment solution.

As a stable form of carbon, biochar locks carbon into the soil for the long term, contributing directly to Ireland’s climate action targets.

Biochar provides a high-performance, sustainable alternative to peat in growing media, supporting the horticultural sector’s transition away from peat extraction.

Used as a manure additive in poultry and livestock settings, biochar reduces ammonia emissions and improves the quality of digestate entering anaerobic digestion.

Spent biochar from water filtration can be incorporated into asphalt and road materials, creating a circular use pathway that reduces waste and strengthens infrastructure.
