Biochar: The Future of Carbon Solutions for Your Business
With Carma’s biochar solutions, your business can actively remove carbon from the atmosphere while enriching the soil. Biochar not only offsets emissions but also creates lasting environmental value, making sustainability a key part of your growth strategy.
The Science
Carbon Stability:
Biochar is produced through pyrolysis, a process that stabilizes organic material, locking carbon away in a stable form that resists degradation.
Soil Health Benefits:
By improving soil structure, biochar increases water retention, nutrient availability, and microbial activity, making it a valuable tool for sustainable farming.
The Research
Industry Insights:
Studies have shown that biochar not only sequesters carbon effectively but also significantly improves soil health, which is crucial for food security in the face of climate change.
Market Trends:
Biochar that meets Carma's vetting standards has an average spot price of £172 per ton and accounted for 94% of all Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) deliveries in 2023.

Questions?
Find answers to common questions about biochar—how it works, its environmental benefits, and why your business should integrate it into your sustainability strategy.
By improving soil health, reducing fertilizer use, and sequestering carbon, biochar offers a holistic solution that benefits farmers, the soil, and the planet. It’s a sustainable tool for regenerating land and supporting climate action.
In a social value sense, it supports sustainable farming practices by increasing crop yields and making soils more resilient to drought and other environmental stressors. This, in turn, leads to better food security and income for farmers.
Biochar helps land farming by improving soil health in several ways:
- Enhances soil fertility: Biochar retains nutrients in the soil, making them more available to plants, which can improve crop yields.
- Increases water retention: Its porous structure helps the soil hold more water, reducing the need for irrigation and helping crops during drought conditions.
- Boosts microbial activity: Biochar provides a habitat for beneficial microorganisms that promote plant growth and soil health.
- Reduces soil acidity: It can help neutralize acidic soils, making them more suitable for farming.
- Sequesters carbon: Biochar locks carbon in the soil for long periods, helping mitigate climate change while improving soil quality.
These benefits lead to healthier, more productive farmland over time.
Biochar is made through pyrolysis, a process that heats organic materials like wood or agricultural waste in the absence of oxygen. This creates biochar, a carbon-rich substance, while also producing renewable energy byproducts like syngas and bio-oil.
