Testing and pilot projects in biochar

We help you move from theory to verified performance – through tailored laboratory and pilot-scale testing.

Do you want to understand how biochar works in practice – in your specific application? We design and conduct tests that provide concrete answers for decision-making and scaling.

What we can test

We conduct customized experiments to evaluate the function of biochar in different applications. Our tests can be adapted to both early-stage ideas and more advanced development needs.

Water treatment (e.g. organic pollutants, PFAS, nutrients)
Biochar in soil and planting substrates
Biochar use in agriculture (e.g. feed or deep litter systems)
Test pyrolysis with innovative biomass
Comparisons between different biochars and materials

How it works

1. Needs assessment
We define together what needs to be tested and why.

2. Test design
We develop a setup – methods, parameters, and evaluation approach.

3. Implementation
Tests at lab or pilot scale, often in collaboration with research environments.

4. Analysis and recommendations
You receive clear results and guidance on the next steps.

A small team with a large network

We are a small team, but we work through an established network of actors in the biochar field. This allows us to conduct a wide range of tests without being tied to a specific technology or facility. It gives us flexibility and access to real-world systems – often crucial for producing results that are practically useful.

We combine hands-on experience in biochar with an understanding of the entire value chain – from production to application and business development.
