The creation of biochar, a charcoal used as a soil amendment, from Japanese knotweed plant waste is a carbon negative process which harnesses the carbon-scavenging power of Japanese knotweed in a positive way and contributes to the fight against climate change by locking carbon away for thousands of years.

We can now harness the carbon scavenging power of Japanese knotweed and other invasive plants, explains Nic Seal, Founder and MD of Environet, a UK specialist in the topic. From one tonne of knotweed rhizome (wet weight) we can create around 150-200kg of charcoal which is 99% pure carbon.

All the more so when a greenhouse gas—carbon dioxide—is used to power the process. Municipal wastewater treatment plants in large cities are insulated from the negative effects of climate change, and treated wastewater can serve as a potential water source, provided appropriate sustainable and cost-effective technologies are available.”.

Put simply, the term ‘cleantech’ describes a product that aims to reduce or mitigate negative environmental impact. Accounting for eight per cent of the world’s carbon emissions, the current process for making cement is far from eco-friendly. At the same time, carbon dioxide is released and captured, alongside oxygen and hydrogen.
