Dear Kevin I might be able to help with a carbon-in-char price.
Assume 85% carbon in the char. Current price is below $6. That puts a value of about 44/12 * 0.85 * $6 = $18.70 per ton or $0.018 per kilo of charcoal. Call it 2 cents. That is about 1/10 of its value as a fuel. I can't see people accepting 2 cents not to burn it. It is simply too valuable as fuel. A carbon dioxide price of $60 would be break even. At that price the global economy would nearly vanish into the hands of the traders. Not going to happen.
