No, but I imagine you aren't the first to ask. I suggest Google. Do you want to try some in your potting soil?
I have access to lots of charcoal and charred wood, and would like to experiment to see if these soils could be produced in a dryer climate.
Here's another article:

Me either. But this certainly sounds like a potentially very "fertile" (no pun intended) area of reseach for a lot of the "Soil Science" researchers at the A&M universities.
