The Effects of Feedstock, Pyrolysis Temperature, and Residence Time on the Properties and Uses of Biochar from Broom and Gorse Wastes [PDF]
Applied SciencesBiochar (BC), which can be produced from several feedstocks, has been widely studied. However, the BC derived from highly pyrolytic shrubs, such as broom and gorse, has been less frequently used and only partially characterized.
