On behalf of the European Commission contracted FP7 REFERTIL Consortium we are searching for available commercial, industrial or pilot scale tested recycling technologies suitable for  biochar production and use in open ecological soil environment. In this context, we would like to clearly identify market available biochar vendor(s) and the biochar technology owner(s). Laboratory  scale, research units or home made biochar solutions will not be selected for evaluation.  

I am pleased to inform that our REFERTIL FP7 project has been started on 1st October, 2011.
