In January a fire destroyed the west half of the old Ellingson Mill shop we were using to house our 1 ton per day experimental plant. The fire did some damage to the plant but it will be able to be refurbished. It will be sent back to ABRI as soon as insurance reimbursement is paid.

Biochar Products is continuing to pursue efforts to further our efforts to learn about fast pyrolysis and to test improved methods and engineering as well as test other feedstocks.

We will be posting further updates as they become available.

We currnetly do not expect to have a plant back in operation till some time in 2012 at the earliest.
