ABSTRACT: This study reports the aerodynamic properties of ground biochar particles produced from the slow pyrolysis of mallee biomass at 400 °C, considering grinding times from 10 s to 16 min. The data show that extensive grinding (e.g., ≥1 min) substantially increases the amounts of particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter of
