The Opportunities of Climate Projects in the Russian Far East

Abstract

Based on the positive results of a long-term field experiment on the introduction of biochar for vegetable crops in the Primorsky Territory on soils of heavy chemical composition, its sequestration effect and positive effect on the water-physical properties of soils were proved. Using the positive experience  of  using  biochar in the agricultural sector of Primorsky region, it is possible to develop a climate project based on the processing of storm emissions into a pyrolysis product. The new VM0044 standard “Methodology for Biochar Usage in Soil and Non-Soil Applications” developed by Verra in 2023 can be the basis for the development of a climate project using biochar.
