Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

We need experiments for high school science students to make and use
biochar. 

 

Kelpie and Christa have provided good instructions for small biochar stoves
for students wanting to learn about biochar:

%20by%20Christa%20Roth.pdf

 

What student projects can demonstrate the ability of biochar to capture
nutrients and retain them for plant growth?

 

Nutrient capture: are there simple leaching or column tests where students
can filter a known concentration of fertilizer elements through samples of
soil with and without biochar and directly measure the concentration in the
filtrate using something like a specific ion electrode or conductivity
tester e.g. K or nitrates, or heavy metals like  Pb, or Cd?

 

Greenhouse/pot tests: can the students then test the same media with and
without biochar in pot tests?     

 

A students recently asked if there is a way that she can measure the amount
of carbon in biochar that will be available for carbon sequestration. Any
examples or ideas?

 

Thanks

I am pretty sure the source is Kirk Smith. Another person who is very up on
the subject is Jostein Nygard <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:jnygard@worldbank.org">jnygard@worldbank.org</a> who has made
calculations for whole countries including China.

 

It is possible Steinar Larssen <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:stlarssen@hotmail.com">stlarssen@hotmail.com</a> is quite au fait with
backgrounders and even the calculation methods.

Why is no one talking about chimneys that get rid of the CO safely? And
doesn't the addition of a chimney change the dynamics of any stove?
