Biochar, the solid product of biomass carbonization, has been produced and utilized for thousands of  years. It is one of the most versatile solid fuels with a vast number of applications. In the last years, biochar has gained increasing popularity as a replacement for fossil carbon carriers, in an attempt to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
A number of different research areas have evolved around biochar, ranging from archeology and medicine to agriculture and metallurgy. While some are more interested in fundamentals of biomass pyrolysis, others may focus on the effect of biochar in different applications.
The motivation may be different, but knowledge about biochar is gathered in all of these communities. This network shall provide a platform to exchange this knowledge and meet other biochar researchers, producers, users and enthusiasts.
