Research is being conducted on the sustainable implications of biocarbons, including their use in creating hybrid biocomposites and as tailored CO2 adsorbents. Biocarbons are being derived from various sources, such as molasses, and combined with materials like graphene nanoplatelets. A country, possibly japan, is also working to advance biocarbon usage, with a significant target in place, although details of the target and its progress are unclear.
