Our mission

Making biochar accessible

BCHAR’s mission is to scale carbon removal by making biochar production accessible, efficient, and impactful. We aim to empower businesses to transform agricultural waste into a valuable tool for carbon removal and soil restoration. Through innovation and automation, we’re helping to drive the transition to renewable energy and a sustainable, carbon-neutral future.

What we build

At BCHAR, we are developing a fully autonomous biochar production line with the following key features:

Complete integration: Our system takes care of everything — from pre-processing agricultural waste, to pyrolysis, to post-processing and biochar packaging — ensuring a seamless, turn-key solution.

Designed in Switzerland, manufactured in Asia: Our design minimizes downtime and reduces maintenance costs, making biochar production more efficient and cost-effective. We combine precision Swiss engineering with cost-efficient manufacturing in Asia, reducing capital expenditures, ensuring a high-quality yet affordable solution.

Global compliance: Our system is built to meet emission standards, ensuring businesses can scale their biochar production globally while remaining environmentally compliant.

Full automation: With no need for manual intervention, our system is easy to use, requires no engineering expertise, and ensures higher safety during operation.

Manufacturing and shipping efficiency: Our system is designed to be mass-manufactured and shipped in ISO containers, allowing for global distribution.

Plug-and-play commissioning: Upon arrival, our system is easily commissioned without the need for complex on-site work, such as welding, reducing installation time and costs.

Energy recovery: Our system allows for the reuse of excess heat generated during pyrolysis, either for on-site electricity production or integration into existing production processes, enhancing energy efficiency.

Seamless integration: Our system integrates smoothly into existing production processes of F&B and other agricultural businesses, making it easy to adopt without operational disruption.

Integrated MRV software: Our built-in Measurement, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) software offers unmatched transparency, providing real-time data on carbon credit generation and allowing businesses to track their carbon removal impact.
