Conversion to char can be accomplished by baking it, or by lighting it on fire, then closing off the air supply. Charcoal is often prepared this way: Dig hole, fill hole with logs, light logs on fire, bury logs, dig up charcoal, profit. I can't be certain without getting knee deep in the literature, but I assume it's fairly high efficiency.NMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14818709669688421239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1608489854219717594.post-32924068039477147472011-10-12T06:26:41.322-04:002011-10-12T06:26:41.322-04:00What's the efficiency of carbon capture of bio...What's the efficiency of carbon capture of biochar as compared with other proposed methods (i.e. how much biochar is required to capture a kilogram of carbon dioxide)? Perhaps compared to copper II benzenetricarboxylate?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10697095034247344613noreply@blogger.com
