Podcast description:
The biomass industry is increasingly partaking in conversations around carbonised biomass, but confusion still arises over which term is the correct one, and what each term means.
In this episode of the Biomass Beat, host Hannah Adler speaks with Chris Wiberg of Biomass Energy Lab (BEL) to unpack the complexities behind biocoal, biocarbon, biochar and charcoal, exploring how these materials are defined, produced, and used across industries ranging from energy to agriculture.
In this episode, you'll discover:
-
A clear breakdown of terminology in the biocarbon sector- and why so many products sound similar but can differ
-
How product specifications and feedstocks vary, from high-grade wood to waste-based
-
An exploration of end uses, including energy generation, soil health, industrial inputs, and carbon removal
-
Insights into market development and standardisation, and why clearer definitions can unlock further investment
