Abstract
Biochar, a carbon-rich material produced from biomass pyrolysis, has garnered increasing attention as an alternative source of energy and a sustainable waste management solution. This narrative review examines the potential of biochar technologies in addressing energy generation and waste mitigation challenges, with a specific focus on its relevance to Ghana's socio-economic and environmental context. Drawing on a comprehensive analysis of literature, the review explores key findings regarding policy frameworks, market mechanisms, and practical implications for biochar adoption. This study integrates insights from various disciplines, including environmental science, renewable energy, waste management, and sustainable development. Through synthesizing diverse perspectives, it offers a holistic understanding of biochar's potential applications and impacts. The study highlights the importance of robust policy frameworks and market mechanisms in fostering the adoption of biochar technologies, emphasizing the need for tailored approaches that align with Ghana's development priorities. Thus, integrating multiple perspectives, identifying practical strategies, suggesting future research directions and identifying practical implications and recommendations this review contributes to advancing our understanding of biochar technologies and their potential contributions to sustainable development in Ghana and beyond.
