Environmental Engineering Center Co.
The project
on biomass utilization and forest conservation is proposed as a Clean
Development Mechanism (CDM) project, by incorporating the carbonization of
biomass residue and waste from the tree plantations and pulp mills, and also
non-fuel utilization of charcoal like soil amendment in agriculture and
forestry, water purification, etc. The total amount of carbon acquired by biochar
reaches 18,587 Mg-C year-1 (biochar used for soil improvement).
