BioInnovation Systems'® breakthrough M2D® (Made to Degrade®) binder
technology is the first biobased solution for pelletizing biochar,
unlocking large-scale agricultural and metallurgical applications
while enabling biomass waste upcycling across industries.
BioInnovation Systems® has developed the world's first fully-compostable, cost-effective binder specifically engineered for biochar pelletization — solving the industry's biggest challenge.
Traditional biochar pelletization has relied on petroleum-based or synthetic binders that compromise biochar's environmental benefits, add significant costs, or fail to meet durability requirements for agricultural and industrial applications.
Many biochar producers struggle to justify the cost of pelletization, limiting market adoption and practical deployment at scale.
M2D® binder technologies deliver a breakthrough: a plant-derived, fully-compostable binder that maintains biochar's carbon sequestration properties while creating durable, high-performance pellets customizable to soil conditions.
This innovation makes biochar pelletization economically viable and environmentally responsible — unlocking the full potential of biochar for climate and market solutions.
Unlike petroleum-based or synthetic binders, M2D® technology is fully biobased and compostable, ensuring biochar pellets maintain their carbon sequestration benefits without introducing persistent chemicals into the soil.
M2D® biochar binding makes pelletization economically viable for large-scale biochar production and deployment — enabling mass-scale market adoption of biochar solutions.
M2D® binder technology works with existing pelletization equipment and processes, requiring no specialized machinery or significant capital investment for biochar manufacturers.
