BioCarbonGrow is a carbon removal initiative rooted in the Paraíba River Valley of Brazil. We transform sustainably sourced Eucalyptus biomass into biochar — a stable form of carbon — and return it to the soil.
At BioCarbonGrow, we remove atmospheric carbon by turning sustainably harvested biomass into biochar — a highly stable form of carbon that can stay locked in soil for centuries. Unlike traditional biomass burning, which releases CO₂, our process transforms organic material into a solid carbon sink. Through responsible forestry, clean pyrolysis, and regenerative soil application, we deliver verified, permanent carbon removal while restoring degraded land.
Traditional biomass use in the region — like charcoal production — releases carbon back into the atmosphere. By contrast, our biochar production process uses clean pyrolysis technology to capture carbon, generate renewable heat, and create a product that enhances soil for generations to come.
Here’s how the process works, step by step:
We are committed to sustainable practices at every step. BioCarbonGrow responsibly sources eucalyptus biomass under PEFC-certified forestry standards, protecting biodiversity and soil health. By minimizing our environmental footprint, we ensure that our project positively impacts the land, water, and local ecosystems.
Our high-efficiency pyrolysis system heats biomass to over 600°C in low-oxygen conditions. This process produces biochar and captures volatile gases, which are recycled to power the system itself — reducing emissions and fossil fuel use. The resulting biochar is highly stable, locking carbon in solid form for centuries, even millennia, depending on soil conditions.
The biochar we produce is returned to local farms within a 100 km radius. Once added to soil, it boosts fertility, enhances water retention, and reduces the need for chemical fertilisers. This directly improves crop yields and resilience — especially during dry spells. This stage is where carbon meets agriculture to create measurable, regenerative impact.
Our entire process is governed by robust Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) accredited by Puro.earth. Every tonne of biochar is tracked from biomass input to final application. We measure soil improvements, carbon stability, and project durability, and publish transparent reports. Independent third parties verify our impact so that buyers, farmers, and funders alike can trust that each carbon certificate represents real, permanent removal — not just offsets, but true climate action.
At the heart of Phase 1 is our Pilot biochar facility, strategically placed on a 4000-hectare eucalyptus plantation. This facility transforms agricultural biomass into biochar, a carbon-rich material that safely stores CO₂ for over a thousand years
By the end of Phase 1 we’ll have proven the tech, the supply chain, and—most importantly—the agronomic value that keeps farmers coming back for more.
At the pilot site we don’t just say we’re sustainable—every tonne of wood and every kilogram of biochar is certified by the world’s leading standards. Two seals underpin Phase 1:
Together, PEFC safeguards the source while Puro.Earth guarantees the sink—delivering carbon credits buyers can trust and a biomass supply chain local communities can be proud of.
Creating one pilot kiln proved the science; scaling kilns is how we turn that proof into climate impact you can count. Each new modular line multiplies our removals and slashes unit cost—because carbon removal only matters if it can grow fast and stay affordable.
By the end of Phase 2, the valley will host a lattice of “black-gold forges” converting low-value residues into permanent carbon sinks—and earning revenue that fuels the next build.
Hardware alone doesn’t lock away carbon; people do. The Collective exists so foresters, mill-owners, and farmers shape growth, share upside, and embed best-practice forestry across the valley.
The result is a flywheel: certified wood feeds kilns → kilns finance community projects → communities supply more certified wood. That alignment of climate, soil, and livelihood is why Phase 2 matters—and how we’ll keep scaling without losing sight of local prosperity.
If you're leading decarbonisation efforts at your organisation, you're likely balancing pressure to act with the need for quality, traceability, and long-term impact. That’s where BioCarbonGrow fits in.
We don’t offer offsets — we deliver measurable, permanent carbon removal, verified by Puro.Earth and grounded in a regenerative land-use model. Every CORC you buy supports:
