Production of a nutrient enriched biochar: a techno‐economic feasibility analysis

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 19, Issue 6, Page 1497-1514, November/December 2025.
Abstract A techno‐economic feasibility analysis was conducted for a biomass pyrolysis plant that utilized Eucalyptus to produce fertilizer‐enriched biochar. Key parameters – biomass throughput, fertilizer loading, and selling price – were optimized for financial viability using net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), return on ...
