A method and process is described for producing negative carbon fuel. In its broadest form, a carbon-containing input is converted to combustible fuels, refinery feedstock, or chemicals and a carbonaceous solid concurrently in separate and substantially uncontaminated form. In an embodiment of the invention, biomass is converted via discrete increasing temperatures under pressure to blendable combustible fuels and a carbonaceous solid. The carbonaceous solid may be reacted to synthesis gas, sold as charcoal product, carbon credits, used for carbon offsets, or sequestered.

1. A method for making negative carbon fuel from a carbon-containing input, comprising: subjecting a carbon-containing input to a pyrolysis process to obtain a volatile gas stream and an inert carbonaceous solid, wherein the volatile gas stream and the inert carbonaceous solid are formed as separate components in the process and wherein a portion of the carbon from the carbon-containing input is contained in the inert carbonaceous solid; andconverting the volatile gas stream to one or more of combustible fuels, fuel blend stocks, refinery or chemical feedstock, refinery or chemical intermediates or chemicals. 2. A method for making negative carbon fuel from a carbon-containing input, comprising: subjecting a carbon-containing input to a pyrolysis process comprising one or more processing steps to obtain an inert carbonaceous solid and one or more combustible fuels, refinery feedstock or chemicals,wherein the one or more combustible fuels, refinery feedstock or chemicals and the inert carbonaceous solid are formed as separate components in the process, andwherein a portion of the carbon from the carbon containing input is contained in the inert carbonaceous solid. 3. The method of claim 1 or 2, wherein the carbon-containing input comprises biomass. 4. The method of claim 1 or 2, wherein the inert carbonaceous solid is suitable for storage in the ground. 5. The method of claim 1 or 2, wherein the inert carbonaceous solid is chemically inert and is not attacked by acids, bases, or biological activity. 6. The method of claim 1 or 2, wherein the inert carbonaceous solid is suitable for use as a soil enhancer. 7. The method of claim 1 or 2, wherein the inert carbonaceous solid is suitable for use as a soil fertilizer. 8. The method of claim 1 or 2, wherein the inert carbonaceous solid is suitable for use as activated charcoal. 9. The method of claim 1 or 2, further comprising: sequestering the carbon of the inert carbonaceous solid by introducing the inert carbonaceous solid into the ground. 10. The method of claim 1 or 2, further comprising: sequestering the carbon of the inert carbonaceous solid by converting the carbonaceous solid into carbon aggregations equivalent to anthracite. 11. The method of claim 1 or 2, further comprising: sequestering the carbon of the inert carbonaceous solid by addition to soil containing compost material. 12. The method of claim 1 or 2, further comprising using the inert carbonaceous solid for carbon offsets. 13. The method of claim 1 or 2, further comprising using the inert carbonaceous solid for carbon credits. 14. The method of claim 1 or 2, wherein at least some of the inert carbonaceous solid is reacted with oxygen, carbon dioxide, methane or steam to generate synthesis gas, and wherein the synthesis gas is converted to combustible fuels, refinery stock or chemicals. 15. The method of claim 1, wherein the volatile gas stream is recovered from the pyrolysis process in a product stream that is separate from that of the inert carbonaceous solid. 16. The method of claim 1 or 2, wherein the one or more combustible fuels, refinery feedstock or chemicals is recovered from the pyrolysis process in a product stream that is free of the inert carbonaceous solid. 17. The method of claim 1 or 2, wherein the one or more combustible fuels, refinery feedstock or chemicals obtained from the pyrolysis process has a carbon negativity of at least 100 (N100). 18. The method of claim 1 or 2, wherein the one or more combustible fuels, refinery feedstock or chemicals obtained from the pyrolysis process has a carbon negativity of at least 105 (N105). 19. The method of claim 1 or 2, wherein the pyrolysis process comprises subjecting biomass to ramps of temperatures under pressure. 20. The method of claim 1, wherein the process further comprises a non-carbon containing input into the pyrolysis process. 21. The method of claim 20, wherein the non-carbon containing input comprises one or more of water. 22. The method of claim 1, wherein the volatile gas stream further comprises one or more of water, carbon oxides and light gases. 23. The method of claim 1, wherein the pyrolysis process comprises a biofractionation process. 24. The method of claim 23, wherein the biofractionation process thermo-chemically subjects the carbon-containing input to increasing temperatures under pressure.
