Research on using biochar for environmental applications has witnessed unprecedented
advances in the past decade. Biochar is universally considered one of the best alternatives …

This study investigates carbon stability of biochars produced from wood, herbaceous, and
fruit agricultural waste products from southern Vietnam. The biochars were produced by …

Pyrolysis of biomass residues into biochar is seen as a feasible way to mitigate climate
change by biological carbon storage (carbon dioxide removal, CDR) and to substitute fossil …

Soil salinization is a major problem affecting agriculture globally. One approach to restore
saline soil is through the application of biochar which is great at adsorbing salt ions and thus …

Soil erosion is one of the major emerging threats to the Himalayan ecosystem. There is a
dearth of diverse, cost-effective erosion control measures in the region. In the Himalayan …

Adsorption is a common process used to remove pharmaceuticals, personal care products
and endocrine disrupting chemicals (PPCPs/EDCs) from water. However, as PPCPs/EDCs …

This study exhibited corn cob biochar (CCBC) as an effective adsorbent with the capability to
reduce water-related contamination generated by potent antibiotics such as the new …

The potential of biochar derived from water hyacinth (Eichhornia carassipes)—an invasive
aquatic weed capable of producing high biomass—for the adsorptive removal of organic …

Large amount of wastes are burnt or left to decompose on site or at landfills where they
cause air pollution and nutrient leaching to groundwater. Waste management strategies that …

Biochar is a promising option for improving soil fertility and agricultural productivity. The
potential of biochar for specific purposes depends on its physical and chemical …
