Global Biochar Market Overview

Biochar market, globally, is projected to grow from $ 285.00 million in 2018 to $ 653.19 million by 2024, exhibiting a CAGR of around 15% during 2019-2024, on account of rising demand for food backed by rising population and ability of biochar to enhance soil fertility. Biochar is an essential soil amendment, which removes pollutants and toxic elements from the soil. It prevents fertilizer runoff and soil leeching as well as protects the crops during floods and draughts.

Technology Insights

Based on technology, the global biochar market has been segmented into pyrolysis, gasification and hydrothermal carbonization. Pyrolysis technology is expected to account for nearly half of the global market in the coming years, owing to high yield coupled with high carbon content and stability.

Application Insights

Based on application, the market has been categorized into livestock farming, farming and others. Farming dominated the global biochar market in 2018 and is anticipated to continue its market dominance in the coming years as well.

Regional Insights

North America is the largest regional market for biochar, globally, as the farming community in the region is more aware of the long-term benefits of biochar, compared to other regions. However, Asia-Pacific biochar market is expected to witness the fastest growth during forecast period, on the back of rapidly growing emerging economies like India and China. Besides, the biochar market is governed by many regulatory authorities including the US EPA and EU Commission in the US and Europe, respectively. The new rules released by the US EPA are anticipated to govern the biochar production.

Competitive Landscape

Some of the leading companies operating in the global biochar market are Agri-Tech Producers, LLC, Diacarbon Energy Inc., Biochar Products, Inc., Cool Planet Energy Systems Inc., Vega Biofuels, Inc., The Biochar Company, Phoenix Energy, Biochar Supreme, LLC, Pacific Pyrolysis, ArSta Eco, among others.
