Instead of decomposing and releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere or being turned into fuel pellets delaying the eventual release of carbon emissions, the wood waste is heated to a high temperature in a low-oxygen environment through a process called pyrolysis. This process creates a high-carbon content charcoal product that we use as the basis for our charcoal powder. So not only are you creating something awesome when you use our powders, you're doing something awesome for the planet by sequestering carbon.
