TLDR
In this paper, the authors conducted a thorough life cycle cost assessment (LCCA) of biochar-based bioenergy production and its land application under four different scenarios: 1) biochar production with low feedstock availability; 2) biochemicals production with high feed stock availability; 3) biochemical production with lower feedstock available; 4) biopharma production with higher feed stock available.About:

Sustainable biochar to mitigate global climate change
TL;DR: The maximum sustainable technical potential of biochar to mitigate climate change is estimated, which shows that it has a larger climate-change mitigation potential than combustion of the same sustainably procured biomass for bioenergy, except when fertile soils are amended while coal is the fuel being offset.

Life Cycle Assessment of Biochar Systems: Estimating the Energetic, Economic, and Climate Change Potential
TL;DR: Life cycle assessment was used to estimate the energy and climate change impacts and the economics of biochar systems, which may at present only deliver climate change mitigation benefits and be financially viable as a distributed system using waste biomass.
