sequestration. In the following
paragraphs, examples where HTC-based materials have proved to be not only sus-
tainable, but to possess extraordinary properties that in some cases surpass those of
current “golden standards” will be summarized.
2.2.6.5.1 Agricultural Applications
Much attention is currently focused on obtaining charcoal from slow pyrolysis pro-
