Macroalgae, with short growth cycles, and high CO₂ fixation capacity, are third-generation biomass mainstays that play an essential role as a global carbon sink. Macroalgal biochar plays a crucial role in soil improvement, pollutant adsorption, electrodes, and capacitors, and it has already contributed to both ecological and economic fields. However, the physicochemical properties of macroalgal biochar are challenging to control, and the way macroalgal biochar is pyrolyzed and activated largely determines its physicochemical properties and areas of application. In this study, five standard methods (conventional pyrolysis, hydrothermal carbonization, microwave pyrolysis, co-pyrolysis, and drying) for the pyrolysis of macroalgal biochar and two activation methods (physical and chemical) are reviewed to screen for optimal preparation and activation methods under different conditions and in different application …
