In the late 1940s Dad had a pit, He'd burn his slabs and whan it turned to a big pile of red He'd turn on the fire pumps and quench it, the farmers would buy it and spread in their chicken and cattle barns to reduce smells, and loved it on their fields after. I still follow his style, yearly burn carpentry, prunings, and scrap wood I find in a pit, then throw it on a compost pile, adding layers, sure helps our Arizona clay dirt, getting good results here.
i have 3 outside wood furnaces to heat the shop and the house and the barn have the option to burn bales out of wood too only downfall have to clean out the heaters if you switching to wood ot the hay bale to bag the sawdust up and burn that to i do to green and wet not good for being at all
That's the best part, it doesn't release any carbon. Charcoal is carbon so when you make charcoal you're keeping carbon from getting into the atmosphere.

All of that carbon into the atmosphere! Why don't you save the planet and just compost it?
