Aim
This project aims to develop a sustainable alternative for metallurgical coal via assessing the impact of pyrolysis conditions on biochar properties and benchmarking it against the current metallurgical coals. The work will optimise the techno/economic/environmental behaviour of the resulting biochar fuel and pyrolizer derived energy, to provide commercial plant operating conditions for any UK based carbon/energy intensive operation. This is a unique whole system approach with embedded circular economy.
