What Biochar Solutions does

Biochar Solutions Inc is a privately held, Colorado-based industrial technology company (founded 2011, 1-10 employees) that designs, fabricates, and sells continuous-process biochar production equipment, with the proprietary B-1000 Thermal Conversion System as its core platform. The system uses a two-stage thermal conversion process — first-stage carbonization in an O2-limited environment at 500-700°C for under one minute, followed by second-stage exposure to pyrolysis gas at 300-550°C for up to 14 minutes — with all process heat generated through exothermic partial oxidation, enabling carbon-negative conversion of wood waste into biochar and renewable bioenergy co-products. The company reports retaining over 40% of feedstock carbon in the biochar, with output split roughly 80% sized chips and 20% fine dust fractions.

The business operates a network/equipment-sales GTM: industrial clients in the wood products and biomass sectors (sawmills, wood processors, biomass handlers) purchase B-1000 systems and become members of the Biochar Solutions Network, gaining access to bundled value-added services including logistics support, supply chain optimization, collective branding, regulatory compliance support, preferred-vendor status, and exclusive product manufacturing licenses. Revenue is generated through one-time equipment sales, ongoing managed services to network members, professional R&D/feedstock testing services, sale of finished biochar products (Premium Mixed <3mm and Premium Screened Chip <6mm, both at ~75% organic carbon), and emerging carbon-credit revenue tied to Isometric certification of its BioFraction facility in Borneo. Pricing is uniformly quote-based and not publicly disclosed.

In 2026 the company signed a supply agreement with Verde Resources Inc. for up to 38,500 tons of engineered biochar annually for use in BioAsphalt road construction products, with roughly half expected to qualify for carbon removal credits shared with Verde and Ergon Asphalt & Emulsions, and entered a broader strategic collaboration with Verde supported by Ergon's 110-country distribution network and Isometric protocol certification.
