Heavy metal contamination in water bodies is currently in an area of greater concern due to
the adverse effects on human health. Despite the good adsorption performance of biochar …

Biochar has gained great scientific attention as a promising agent for agricultural and
environmental applications. A variety of biochars with excellent properties such as high …

Background Biochar-based fertilizer products (BCF) have been reported to increase both
crop yield and N-use efficiency. Such positive effects are often assumed to result from the …

Recently, biochars have been proposed as highly efficient and low-cost media for the
adsorptive removal of various hazardous compounds. However, there is a dearth of …

Adoption of renewable energy sources such as biomass has been increasing worldwide. In
this study, fast pyrolysis as an acceptable and viable method to get renewable bio-oil and …

Biochars can remove potentially toxic elements, such as inorganic mercury [Hg (II)] from
contaminated waters. However, their performance in complex water matrices is rarely …

Biochar, a low-density yet carbon-rich material derived from different organic materials
pyrolyzed under low or no oxygen conditions, has been widely studied as a soil amendment …

Biochar (BC) is a carbon-rich material produced from pyrolysis of biomass. In addition to its
low toxicity, environmental compatibility, and low cost, BC has the desired advantages of …

Literature shows that biochar can potentially retain nutrients in agricultural soils, avoiding
significant nutrient losses. Furthermore, biochar porosity and functional groups have been …

The formation of persistent free radicals (PFRs) in biochar (BC) is closely related to the
structural characteristics and reactivity of BC, which have toxic effects on the environment …
