The Secret of El Dorado – BioChar




The Secret of El Dorado – BioChar

Posted on May 2, 2013 by C4DE
 
Biochar is what we call charcoal when it is used as a soil amendment. Like all charcoal, biochar is created by pyrolysis. Under investigation as an approach to carbon sequestration to produce negative carbon dioxide emissions, Biochar has the potential to help mitigate climate change, via carbon sequestration. Biochar can increase soil fertility, increase agricultural productivity and provide protection against some foliar and soil-borne disease.

 Biochar is a stable solid, rich in carbon and can endure in soil for thousands of years.

Wae Nelson was employed as a mechanical engineer in the aerospace and defense industries for many years, working both as a designer and as a manager in manufacturing. Now he publishes the magazine beloved by local gardeners, Florida Gardening, and pursues his passion for biochar — a diy, scalable technique to both improve horticultural yields and sequester carbon simultaneously.
