Basics

  • The material resulting from Pyrolysis of Biomass
  • May contain some trapped Pyrolysis Oil and Ash (depends on many factors)
  • If washed and colonized via microorganisms it becomes Biochar , a valuable Soil Adamant (Need to clear up the difference between this, on the pages, and in-wiki)
    • Supposedly can also have an effect similar to Biological Oxygen Requirement but in solid form where it can remove nutrients if added "raw" ?, need data to back that up
