Depending on the feedstock origin and composition as well as the pre-treatment and process the chemical and physical properties (e.g. carbon content, functional groups, heating value, surface area, pore-size distribution) of the produced char can vary.  
Depending on the feedstock origin and composition as well as the pre-treatment and process the chemical and physical properties (e.g. carbon content, functional groups, heating value, surface area, pore-size distribution) of the produced char can vary. The application possibilities are versatile, the char can be used as soil amendment for carbon sequestration, soil fertility improvement, and pollution remediation. Furthermore the char can be used for catalytic purposes, energy storage, or sorbent for pollutant removal from water or flue-gas.
