Revenue model
- CDR Credit Sales: Sale of Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) credits generated from biochar production. CDR credits trade at premium prices ($110+ USD per credit, with Sri Lanka project at $180-200 USD). Credits can be retired by organizations to neutralize residual emissions and claim high-quality contribution to environmental sustainability.
- Biochar Product Sales: Sale of biochar produced from waste biomass for agricultural applications (soil improvement, fertilizer), industrial uses (livestock feed additive, water filtration), and construction materials.
- Project Development Services: End-to-end project development services including engineering, design, technology provision, registry compliance, financing support, and project implementation for biomass waste to biochar conversion.
- Carbon Project Investment: Debt and equity financing opportunities for carbon investors through diverse suite of biochar projects. Provides access to carbon removal project investments.

Biocare product offering
Product offeringCore offering
Biocare develops and delivers end-to-end biochar Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) projects, converting agricultural and forestry biomass waste (rice husks, coconut husks, almond shells, eucalyptus and pine residues) into biochar via proprietary continuous-flow pyrolysis reactors. The company monetizes the resulting permanent carbon storage through the sale of high-integrity CDR credits via spot and forward arrangements, alongside biochar product sales and end-to-end project development services covering engineering, design, technology deployment, registry compliance, financing, and credit monetization.
Product overview
Biocare is an end-to-end biochar Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) project developer offering a premium service that converts waste biomass streams into high-quality biochar for permanent carbon sequestration. Its core product is a CDR portfolio comprising individually named biochar projects — including the Sri Lanka Coconut Project, Vietnam Coconut & Rice Residues Project, Argentinian Forestry Biochar Project (developed with GMF Latinoamérica using the BITE pyrolysis system), Australian Forestry Residues Project #3, MK Rice Husk Biochar Partnership, and the Carbonchip Mobile Carbonizer — across 6 countries with 5 different engineered reactor technologies. The portfolio produces permanent, measurable, and scalable CDR, which Biocare sells via spot and forward purchase arrangements. Complementing the project portfolio, Biocare provides end-to-end project development services covering engineering, design, technology deployment, registry compliance, financing, and carbon credit monetization.

Biocare competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Pacific Biochar: US-based biochar producer and CDR credit developer serving both agricultural and carbon removal markets. Direct peer with overlapping customer base (corporate carbon buyers) and product (biochar CDR credits).
- Wakefield Biochar: US-based biochar producer operating commercial pyrolysis facilities and selling into agricultural and carbon removal markets. Direct competitor with comparable pyrolysis-based production model.
- Carbon Gold: UK-based biochar producer focused on agricultural soil amendment and carbon removal. Direct peer operating at the intersection of biochar production, agricultural use cases, and CDR credit generation.
- Exomad Green: Spanish biochar CDR developer producing carbon removal credits from biomass waste for the voluntary carbon market. Direct peer focused on engineered biochar CDR with multi-geography operations.
- Carbofex: Finnish biochar producer using proprietary pyrolysis technology to convert woody biomass into biochar for soil and carbon removal applications. Direct competitor in industrial-scale biochar CDR with proprietary reactor technology.
- NetZero: French biochar CDR project developer producing and selling high-integrity carbon removal credits from agricultural waste. Directly comparable to Biocare in both business model (end-to-end biochar CDR development and credit sales) and target market (corporate CDR buyers).
- Inkan Negro: Peruvian biochar company led by Dr. Brenton Ladd that is both a Biocare partner and a peer — converts municipal organic waste into biochar and soil remediation products. Direct competitor in biochar-based soil remediation and CDR.
Emerging players
- Charm Industrial: US-based CDR developer using biomass-to-bio-oil conversion with underground sequestration rather than biochar-to-soil. Comparable as a CDR competitor targeting the same corporate buyers, but uses a different removal pathway.
- Heirloom Carbon Technologies: US-based DAC company using limestone-based direct air capture. Competes for the same corporate net-zero CDR procurement budget as Biocare, but with a fundamentally different (DAC) removal pathway at higher unit cost and venture-backed scale.
Others
- Puro.earth: Carbon registry specializing in biochar and engineered CDR that issues CORC credits to Biocare's projects. Functions as both registry partner and ecosystem enabler — not a direct competitor but a critical infrastructure provider in the same market.
