Biochar from waste biomass gasification as a sustainable soil amendment

Biochar left over from gasifying oak wood waste was mixed into soil in pot trials, and its effect on plant growth and soil properties measured. With GÜBRETAŞ.

Aim: To evaluate the biochar that comes out of waste biomass gasification as a by-product as a soil amendment and a promoter of plant growth.

Methods: Biochar obtained from the gasification of oak wood waste is characterised and mixed into soil at different rates. Pot trials measure plant growth, soil properties and plant nutrient contents to show what the biochar contributes.

Scope: Run as a GTÜ TTO R&D project with GÜBRETAŞ and completed in 2023.
