Capchar

Carbon infrastructure

Biochar carbon measurement and removal

CapChar connects its beta dMRV platform, Biochar Carbon Code and public registry to support eligible biochar carbon-removal projects. Operators need production records, laboratory results, project emissions data and evidence of eligible biochar end use.

Three connected parts.

dMRV — the records

Our beta digital monitoring, reporting and verification platform supports feedstock provenance, production measurements, sampling records and evidence of biochar end use.

BCC — the methodology

The Biochar Carbon Code sets out how eligible projects quantify and document carbon removal, including the emissions associated with the project.

Registry — the public record

The CapChar registry provides a public record of Biochar Carbon Unit transactions and retirements.

Follow the evidence from source to end use.

  1. Record feedstock source, quantity and relevant characteristics
  2. Capture production weights and process measurements
  3. Keep biochar sampling and laboratory test records
  4. Document transport, energy use and other project emissions
  5. Evidence the eligible end use and durable storage of biochar
  6. Complete required checks and verification before issuance

Value belongs in a complete business case.

Carbon-removal revenue can complement useful heat and biochar value where a project meets the requirements.

CapChar provides equipment, integration and carbon infrastructure. Project operators produce and market their outputs; CapChar does not sell their heat, biochar or carbon credits.

Producing biochar does not automatically create eligible credits. Net removal, testing, verification, issuance and buyer requirements all matter.

Practical questions

Biochar carbon-removal questions.

What is biochar carbon removal?

Biochar carbon removal stores a portion of biomass carbon in a durable solid form and an eligible end use. Credited net removal must account for the relevant project emissions and satisfy the applicable methodology and verification requirements.

What is the difference between dMRV, the BCC and the registry?

dMRV supports evidence collection. The Biochar Carbon Code provides the methodology for eligible removal. The registry provides public transaction and retirement records. These are complementary parts of CapChar’s carbon infrastructure.

Does producing biochar automatically generate carbon credits?

No. Eligibility depends on feedstock, production, laboratory evidence, project emissions, eligible end use and required verification. Buying equipment does not guarantee credit issuance or a carbon-credit buyer.
