Oregon Biochar produces a high-quality, high-carbon, and high surface area biochar (Rogue Biochar) from local forestry biomass available in the US's northwest. The production facility is a carbon-neutral biomass plant located in Jackson County, Oregon. The feedstocks include low-value biomasses recovered from farms and orchards, woody biomass and burnt material from forest fires, as well as secondary and tertiary wood residues from the region.
The biochar has an 83% fixed carbon content, 0.08 H/C and 0.05 O/C molar ratios. It also has a high surface area, which enables it to displace fossil and unsustainably produced activated carbons in applications such as water filtration. About 80% of the production is sold in agriculture where its soil water and nutrient retention and microbial benefits provide farmers with a solution for issues such as low-water availability, drought, nutrient run-off, poor soil, and compaction. About 5% of the production is used in stormwater management applications to prevent nutrient and pollutant runoff to water bodies, while the rest is applied in industrial landfills as a capping agent.
Oregon Biochar’s goal is to draw down carbon, mitigate climate change, decrease water pollution, and regenerate severely degraded lands. This mission cannot be achieved alone.
