NEW YORK, September 21, 2026 – During Climate Week NYC, Beston Group participated in the Puro.earth CDR Summit, contributing two highlights: a biochar carbon dioxide removal (CDR) project announced by Robinson Carbon using Beston’s pyrolysis technology, and an industry roundtable hosted by Beston Group on scaling biochar CDR.
🤝 Major Biochar CDR Project Announcement
Robinson Carbon officially announced the launch of the Red River Phase 1 Biochar CDR project, which will use Beston’s BST-50S pyrolysis reactors. The partnership is now moving into execution. It reflects a wider industry shift: Biochar CDR is moving from early proof-of-concept to scalable, commercially viable deployment.
🎙️ Industry Dialogue: Scaling Biochar CDR
Beston Group also hosted a roundtable, “Scaling Biochar CDR: From Technology to Bankable Projects.” Around 30 industry leaders and experts joined the discussion, including representatives from Exomad Green, Carbonfuture, Cula Technologies, Supercritical, Varaha, Mitsubishi Corporation, Tierra Prieta, Bioflux, Mangrove Systems, and Ground Up.
Participants shared practical experience across the Biochar CDR value chain:
▪️ Exomad Green shared experience in developing large-scale Biochar CDR projects.
▪️ Carbon market and dMRV experts discussed data transparency, traceability, certification readiness, and credible MRV systems.
▪️ Project developers and commercial partners exchanged insights on securing feedstock supply, project economics, financing, and how to scale projects beyond the pilot phase.
The discussion covered five core dimensions of scaling Biochar CDR:
▪️ Technology and scalability
▪️ Feedstock supply and project development
▪️ Carbon credits and dMRV
▪️ Business models and financing
▪️ Market outlook and ecosystem collaboration
The consensus?💡 A successful Biochar CDR project takes far more than reliable equipment. Technology should close the loop with stable feedstock, long-term operational data, credible MRV and certification, sustainable revenue models, and financing.
Outlook
For Beston Group, the Puro.earth Summit was more than a platform to showcase technology. It was an important opportunity to drive industry exchange and project partnerships. Beston Group will continue working with partners across the value chain to turn more Biochar CDR concepts into large-scale, commercial projects.
