Amendment of soil with biochar has been widely investigated for soil quality improvement in
terms of biotic and abiotic functionalities. The performance of biochar-based amendment …

Biochar, a product of biomass pyrolysis, is characterized by significant surface area,
porosity, high water holding capacity, and environmental persistence. It is perceived as a …

Biochar, produced as a by-product of pyrolysis/gasification of waste biomass, shows great
potential to reduce the environment impact, address the climate change issue, and establish …

Biochar (BC) is considered as a promising adsorbent and/or catalyst for the removal of
organic contaminants. However, the relationship between the particle size of BC and its …

Soil contamination with organic contaminants and various heavy metals has become a
global environmental concern. Biochar application for the remediation of polluted soils may …

Due to anthropogenic activities, heavy metal (HM) pollution in soils has increased, resulting
in severe ecological problems and posing a constant threat to human health. Among various …

For more than a decade, researchers on all continents have been engaged in an initiative to
simultaneously produce bioenergy, remove excess carbon (C) from the atmosphere and …

Biochar, derived from thermal pyrolysis of biomass, has been regarded as a low-cost,
sustainable and beneficial material and widely applied in agriculture, environment and …

Long-term application of bulk biochar (BC) in soil or water environment could result in
physical disintegration of BC into smaller particle sizes, including the formation of BC …

With the widespread use of biochar, the cascading effects of biochar exposure on soil fauna
urgently require deeper understanding. A meta-analysis quantified hierarchical changes in …
