Published by《Sustainability》, study demonstrates how two major waste streams in Southeast Asia—rubberwood sawdust and sewage sludge—can be transformed into high-value biochar.

Why Rubberwood sawdust?

• Ultra-high carbon content: Rubberwood sawdust biochar reaches 86.7% carbon content, far exceeding conventional biochar
•  International standard compliance: H/C and O/C ratios fully meet European Biochar Foundation (EBC) standards
•  Carbon sequestration potential: 22.73% carbon sequestration rate, contributing to carbon neutrality goals
• Co-pyrolysis innovation: 75:25 mixing ratio achieves optimal performance while reducing heavy metal risks 

Practical Implications:

For the Southeast Asian rubber industry (Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia), this means:

Millions of tons of annual rubberwood sawdust no longer become pollution from open burning

Sewage sludge achieves resource recovery and valorization

Low-cost soil amendment solutions for degraded lands

New value creation through circular economy models
