Agricultural activities and soils release greenhouse gases, and additional emissions occur
in the conversion of land from other uses. Unlike natural lands, active management offers …

The increasing use of engineered nanoparticles (NP) in industrial and household
applications will very likely lead to the release of such materials into the environment …

Although the definition and measurement techniques for atmospheric" black carbon"(" BC")
or" elemental carbon''(" EC") have long been subjects of scientific controversy, the recent …

Evidence is accumulating that sorption of organic chemicals to soils and sediments can be
described by “dual-mode sorption”: absorption in amorphous organic matter (AOM) and …

Kerogen, commonly defined as the insoluble macromolecular organic matter (OM)
dispersed in sedimentary rocks, is by far the most abundant form of OM on Earth. This fossil …

In this work, bio-char, a mass productive by-product of biomass fast pyrolysis, was adopted
as an adsorbent to remove tetracycline (TC) from aqueous solution. To enhance the …

In the past 30 years, the field of black carbon (BC) research has expanded broadly,
stretching from its traditional core in the atmospheric sciences into oceanography, soil …

The carbon (C) cycle in boreal regions is strongly influenced by fire, which converts biomass
and detrital C mainly to gaseous forms (CO 2 and smaller proportions of CO and CH 4), and …

This paper provides an updated review on the subjects, the available alternative to produce
biochar from biomass, quantification and characterization of biochar, the adsorptive capacity …

Carbonaceous aerosols cause strong atmospheric heating and large surface cooling that is
as important to South Asian climate forcing as greenhouse gases, yet the aerosol sources …
