Analogous to the Biochar/Lime Co-Production System, this concept is for the co-production of biochar and fired bricks.
Idea to couple the production of biochar with the production of fired bricks. The pyrolysis gas generated during char production is not flared off but used to fire bricks. The process is carbon-negative. This type of production needs relatively close ('round the clock) monitoring but there is potential for automation.
Heat is another co-product that could be used for space heating, greenhouses, etc.
