1 Pyrolysis, Char and Energy Fernando Preto CanmetENERGY, Natural Resources Canada The Canadian Biochar Initiative, Inaugural Meeting December 12, 2008, Ste Anne de Bellevue
2 About CanmetENERGY CanmetENERGY is the science and technology arm of the Energy Technology and Programs Sector of Natural Resources Canada
3 CanmetENERGY assists industry to develop cleaner, energy-efficient and cost-effective biomass conversion processes. The Biomass & Renewables Group focuses on optimizing the performance of biomass energy technologies and developing new products and technologies for sustainable development.

5 Charcoal or Biochar Pyrolysis produces charcoal, which is called biochar when buried in the ground Carbon from the waste biomass is retained in biochar and permanently sequestered in the soil, effectively removing that carbon from the atmosphere. The carbon in a ton of biochar is equivalent to 3 to 3.5 tons of CO2. Biochar is not only a carbon sink, it increases soil fertility increasing cat-ion exchange and water retention capacity in soils, while reducing nutrient leaching and providing a "coral reef" for soil microorganisms thereby significantly increasing productivity and crop yield.
6 Charcoal or Biochar If charcoal is used for energy can it be called biochar? Ultimate goal is still to optimize solid carbon retention (char production) whether the objective is to use it as a fuel/feedstock or as soil remediation What is the best way to optimize char production?
7 What is Pyrolysis? Pyrolysis is the thermal decomposition of biomass (organic material) at elevated temperatures, in the absence of oxidants such as air or oxygen. Pyrolysis of solid biomass produces solid (char) and vapour containing the products of decomposition. Part of the vapour can be condensed to produce a liquid (bio-oil). The distribution between solid, liquid and noncondensable gases depends on the biomass and conditions of pyrolysis (temperature and time).
8 Charcoal Production & Use Pyrolysis in late medieval foundry processes Georgius Agricola, De Re Metallica Libri XII, MDLVI English translation 1912 by Herbert Hoover

22 Maximizing Charcoal Yield
23 Maximizing Charcoal Yield Low pyrolysis temperature (<400ºC) (but also lower fixed carbon content) High process pressure (1 MPa) (higher concentration of pyrolysis vapor increases rate of secondary reactions) Long vapor residence time (extended vapor/solid contact promotes secondary coke forming reactions) Low heating rate (slower formation and escape of organic vapors) Large biomass particle size (low thermal conductivity of biomass results in slow heat and mass transfer rate within particles)

33 CanmetENERGY Study: The Combustion Characteristics of Charcoal and a Strategy for the Development of Biocoal Formulations for use in Utility Boilers The objectives of this study were to investigate: The combustion characteristics of commercial charcoal and determine how it would behave in a utility boiler. Determine if there exists more optimal charcoal formulations for use in utility boilers Acknowledgements: R. Dureau, B. Clements, A. Palmer, L. Giroux
