Urban Biochar & Sustainable Materials Demonstrator
Unlocking Biochar potential for Sustainable Cities
This short film explores the Urban Biochar & Sustainable Materials Demonstrator, designed, manufactured and supplied by FuturEnergy to Aston University’s Energy & Bioproducts Research Institute (EBRI).
Discover how biochar is produced to enhance urban environments, support local economies, and improve soil health in city landscapes. The project also conducts cutting-edge scientific modelling to evaluate biochar’s carbon capture potential, paving the way for a more sustainable future.
Biochar Demonstrator at Cofton Nursery
A state-of-the-art biochar processing unit has been installed at Cofton Nursery (Birmingham City Council) near the Lickey Hills. Using FuturEnergy PyroFlex™ pyrolysis technology, waste wood is converted into biochar, preventing greenhouse gas emissions and offering a sustainable carbon storage solution.
The demonstration unit consists of:
Processor Unit – A FuturEnergy PyroFlex™ system to produce biochar, bio-oil, and biogas for heating, cooling, and chemical production.
Control Room – Supports research into biochar applications and carbon capture benefits.
The heat generated will also support horticultural polytunnels growing plants for Birmingham’s parks, national flower shows, and public sales.
