Turning Daily Cooking into Climate Action: Biochar from Bangladesh

Date:2026-01-22

Researchers at Bangladesh Agricultural University have developed a low-cost stove that produces biochar while cooking. This innovation reduces fuel use, improves soil quality, and supports carbon sequestration—all from a household appliance.

 

Key Highlights:

-Dual-purpose design: High-temperature cooking + biochar production

-Cost-effective & farmer-friendly: Enables smallholders to adopt climate-smart practices

 

Early results: Reduced fuel consumption, faster cooking, and high-quality biochar suitable for soil application

 

Environmental impact: Helps sequester carbon and enhances soil fertility

 

This breakthrough aligns with ABEE's mission to showcase practical biomass solutions that drive sustainable agriculture and renewable energy adoption. With support from the Bangladesh Sustainable and Renewable Energy Association (BSREA), ABEE 2026 offers a platform for innovations like this to connect with regional and global stakeholders.
