As pyrolysis is an exothermic process and only sensible heat to raise the temperature is needed for carbonization. By utilizing the heat from tar and pyroligneous acid the charcoal making process can be made energy efficient and sustainable.

What is that source of abundant biomass? How is that biomass turned into bio charoal? The efficiecy rating is about the same or less as with using wood pellets. Are they actually using biomass charcoal or pellets and if so would the same furnace be able to use pellets? Is this new heater idea actually commercially viable? Was this article written by amateur dabbler? Real facts please. This article is raising more questions than it informs.

What is that source of abundant biomass? How is that

biomass turned into bio charoal? The efficiecy rating is

about the same or less as with using wood pellets.

Are they actually using biomass charcoal or pellets

and if so would the same furnace be able to use pellets? Is this new heater idea actually commercially

viable? Was this article written by amateur dabbler?

Real facts please.

Significantly improving the thermal efficiency of charcoal heaters and stoves will have a significant effect on lowering CO2 emissions and reducing pollution.
