Pyrolysis or Gasification Technology to Create Biochar/Gas
Biosolids are heated (using little or no oxygen) to make a gas or “biochar”. The gas created can be used to produce heat or electricity. Biochar is a type of charcoal that is made from organic material. It can be used as a soil additive to improve soil fertility and enhance water retention.
Timeline: 7-10 years for permitting, siting and construction of a permanent facility. Advanced thermal technology is not currently used for processing biosolids in Canada.
Estimated Cost: $500-$4,500/tonne
