### Description

Carbon Cycle is a privately-owned company based in south-eastern Germany that specializes in the production of high-quality biochar, which offers solutions to modern agriculture problems such as nutrient loss, nitrate leaching, and soil fertility issues.  Carbon Cycle sells its biochar to the farming industry in several EU countries and holds the European certificate of sustainably produced biochar (EBC).

The company uses untreated wood chips from energy grade wood,  locally sourced from PEFC certified forests as feedstock for the biochar.

### Application

- Animal feed
- Animal litter
- Soil improvement

### Co-benefits

The produced biochar is deployed, either directly, or indirectly for soil improvement. It greatly increases water and nutrient retention in soil. Biochar also reduces the need for artificial fertilizers, which are typically energy-intensive to produce.

The use of biochar as an animal feed additive has well-documented health benefits and reduces methane emissions.

### Additionality

The revenue gained by carbon removal suppliers speeds their growth, compounding the climate effect, and accelerating the carbon net-negative economy. Carbon Cycle started production of biochar in 2019 with a highly efficient e-flox design production system. In 2023, Carbon Cycle commissionned a new, larger production system. The revenue from carbon removal certificates is an essential part of the business case for further investment.
