Use of Biochar in Water Purification聽Jun 25 鈥� Market Of Dreams, 2136 N. Fourth St., Flagstaff. 7-8 p.m., Biochar Information Presentation at Market Dreams.聽June 25, 2025 Our current reclaimed water contains an unknown variety and quantity of hazardous chemicals that can cause cancers, birth defects, loss of reproductive capability in humans and all other life forms. NAU's Dr. Propper (2002) documented that endocrine disruptors in the Rio de Flag caused males frogs to produce eggs inside their testes, a frightening occurrence. Other scientists have documented reproductive disruption in numerous other aquatic and non-aquatic species. Our treated wastewater contains an unknown myriad of different chemical compounds that can cause numerous health issues across species; however, we have little if any research on how bacteria, protozoans, fungi and other microbes that help maintain stable ecosystems are affected by the chemical concoctions in our reclaimed water. Some of these chemicals are called "forever compounds" because they do not breakdown, but do react with cells in our and all other species, especially among aquatic species. These are called PFAS and PFOS compounds that originally came from things like Teflon, now exist in over 1000 different compounds and are currently regulated, at the 3-4 parts per TRILLION. Biochar is new method of removing many of these man-made organic compounds that make a lot of money for chemical corporations, and a lot of illness among humans and other species that enable us to live on planet Earth. Bio-char is a very high-grade charcoal wherein wood products are brandished at 700*F in a non-oxygen environment (no fire). This is very similar to processes used by Coconino County to dispose of large stacks of trees cut to reduce the potential of a catastrophic fire in our regional forests. Whether the County's process could be used to make biochar has not yet been determined, and is a potential avenue of cooperation the both reduce our forest fuels while making biochar that could lower the potential of our poisoning ourselves and the species with whom we both share and depend on for our healthy environment. You are invited to join the Flagstaff Water Group to learn more about how the use of biochar in cleaning our reclaimed water may be a step towards preserving a healthy environment for ourselves, our grandkids and beyond, as well as the species and non-living materials that maintain a healthy ecosystem that we are all dependent upon.
