ARTi is consistently working on Research and Development for biochar and pyrolysis under the direction of PhD. Bernardo Del Campo. Dr. del Campo is a biochar expert and co-author of Chapters 3 and 4 of the book Biochar for Environmental Management: Science, Technology and Implementation published in 2015 by Routledge. Dr. del Campo’s chapters focus on Biochar production technology. 

The study of biochar production technology or pyrolysis technology includes testing out many varieties of biomass feedstock to produce biochar material for various uses and with different characteristics based on the original materials. There are also differences in processing techniques and in the lengths of production times as well. These procedures include tests such as biomass analysis (CHON-S), biochar composition and characterization, surface area analysis for adsorption, filter media performance analysis, and emission testing. At ARTi we have our own laboratory and we communicate and work regularly with other laboratories and researchers in the field.
