    This New York town doesn’t want to smell like burned ass.

    Unless of course I’m misunderstanding “Biosolids”.

      The biochar is heated in a vacuum. Meaning, there shouldn’t be any smell produced because there’s no air exchange.

        Still gotta get carted in, and housed before the char, and tbh I still wouldn’t trust it even if those weren’t the case. Not tryna be a NIMBY but put that kinda stuff 10 miles outta town.
