BC Reactor
BC Biocarbon is a Canadian company founded in 2011 that focuses on innovative waste-to-resource solutions using proprietary pyrolysis technology. The company converts low-value biomass residuals, primarily wood waste from the lumber industry, into high-carbon biochar and biocoal products. Their flagship product, Black Bear Biochar(TM), is an OMRI-certified organic soil amendment that enhances soil water retention and supports microbial activity, contributing to improved soil productivity and climate change mitigation. Operating a commercial biorefinery facility in Saskatchewan, BC Biocarbon can process up to ten tonnes of biomass per hour. Their pyrolysis process produces carbon-rich solids, liquids, and gases, generating valuable soil amendments and certified carbon credits through verified carbon sequestration. Their products are widely used in the horticulture industry and are featured in soil mixes from companies like Sun Gro(R), as well as distributed in major retail chains such as Walmart and Home Depot. Additionally, BC Biocarbon is advancing the use of biocoal as a carbon-neutral alternative fuel for the cement industry, supporting sustainability goals and regional economic growth.
