STORMWATER SOLUTIONS

Transform Waste IntoWater Protection

BioCarbon Oklahoma delivers biochar-based stormwater management systems that turn construction waste into powerful filtration media—protecting waterways, enhancing soil health, and sequestering carbon for residential developers across Oklahoma.

Why Biochar for Stormwater?

Proven science meets practical application for Oklahoma's unique environmental challenges.

Superior Filtration

Removes >95% of dissolved copper and zinc, blocks E. coli, and captures nutrients before they reach waterways.

Regulatory Confidence

Meets EPA MS4 and Oklahoma DEQ stormwater quality requirements with peer-reviewed performance data.

Circular Economy Story

Transform your construction waste into biochar, then use it on-site—a powerful narrative for community engagement.

Cost Competitive

20-40% lower cost than activated carbon, with comparable or superior performance in stormwater applications.

Built for Oklahoma'sUnique Challenges

Severe Weather Impact

Oklahoma experiences intense storms that drive major erosion and runoff. Biochar's high water-holding capacity (up to 6x its weight) reduces peak flow volumes and extends infiltration time.

Expansive Clay Soils

Native Oklahoma clays have poor infiltration and high runoff potential. Biochar improves soil aggregation and creates macropores, dramatically increasing water infiltration rates.

Rising ESG Expectations

Communities increasingly demand sustainable development. Biochar offers a compelling story: repurposing waste, protecting water quality, and sequestering carbon—all in one solution.
