C:N EXPLANATION

Our ECOCHAR has gone through a high heat environment so the carbon has double bonded. Microbes can no longer break that carbon down.

In the case of broiler litter, the microbes are sequestering the nitrogen. In the case of wood char the nitrogen is not being sequestered by microbial action, it is sequestered by being held by the wood itself.

Our ECOCHAR (Biochar), is a different structure of carbon than wood char. Wood base chars are not previously activated and they don`t have the nutrients.

Manure based chars (ECOCHAR) have nutrients in them and have a component of nitrogen in the char itself. So potentially for nitrogen sequestration is very, very low as compared to a wood based char.
