Takachar

SilvaChar Environmental Inc. operates a biochar production facility in British Columbia that converts forestry slash and wood waste—material that would otherwise be openly burned and emit significant greenhouse gases—into stable biochar that sequesters carbon for centuries. Using a modified Takachar pyrolysis system, the project processes hog fuel feedstock into biochar products for agricultural and landscaping applications while generating verified carbon credits by accounting for operational emissions and net carbon storage. The project aims to scale as a regional alternative to slash burning, delivering durable carbon removal alongside soil productivity benefits and reduced nutrient runoff.
