Biochar isn't only means for the amendment of soil fertility, but also good option for the reduction of atmosphere carbon (CO2, CH4). If there is a big factory for pyrolysis (and obtaining of biochar), but shortage of soil in vicinity, where biochar can be applied, won't it be a problem? If extra-enriching of soil with biochar deteriorate soil fetility, than produced biochar must be transported on certain distance, where it can be mixed with soil without negative effects for the soil.
P.S. Situation with big pyrolitic factory and shortage of soil can be assumed for wooded islands far from the mainland (for example).
