About
Circular Carbon GmbH, founded in 2018, is a German biochar company and subsidiary of the econnext holding group. It operates an industrial pyrolysis plant on the island of Peute in Hamburg-Veddel where cocoa shells are carbonised into biochar, and the resulting steam is fed into a neighbouring industrial cocoa producer as an energy source. Each of its “CarbonHub” plants generates CDR credits alongside renewable energy, and the company plans to replicate this model in new facilities.
