Abstract: The present invention relates to an integrated biochar production and carbon capture and utilization system (100) and a method (200) for converting agricultural biomass into biochar and useful products. The system (100) includes a biomass receiving unit (102), drying unit (104), shredding unit (106), impurity separation unit (108), pyrolysis unit (110), gas cooling and water recovery unit (112), carbon capture unit (114), methanol synthesis unit (116), gas separation and utilization unit (118), emission treatment unit (120), biochar cooling unit (122), and biochar storage unit (124). Agricultural biomass is dried, shredded and subjected to impurity separation before controlled pyrolysis in the pyrolysis unit (110) under substantially oxygen-free conditions to produce biochar and pyrolysis gases. Carbon dioxide present in the pyrolysis gases is captured by the carbon capture unit (114) and converted into methanol in the methanol synthesis unit (116), while other gaseous constituents are separated and utilized. Water is recovered and recycled, gaseous impurities are treated, and the produced biochar is cooled and stored. FIG. 1
