Shipment Update: BST-50 Almond Shell Biochar Machine to Australia

In June 2024, Beston Group shipped a BST-50 biochar machine to Australia for a biomass pyrolysis project focused on recycling almond shells. The Australian customer plans to sell the produced charcoal directly. Future plans include exploring its use as an additive in cattle and sheep feed, for soil improvement, and for carbon sequestration. Let’s dive into more details about this collaboration.
