In recent years, there has been a significant interest on biochar for various environmental
applications, eg, pollutants removal, carbon sequestration, and soil amelioration. Biochar …

With increased interest in scientific investigations and large-scale applications of
lignocellulosic biomass derived biochar for environmental management, a comprehensive …

Surface functional groups constitute major electroactive components in pyrogenic carbon.
However, the electrochemical properties of pyrogenic carbon matrices and the kinetic …

Biochar has been demonstrated to be a promising sorbent and its redox activity can be
involved in environmentally relevant redox reactions. In this study, the electron transfer for …

Compound contamination in soil, caused by unreasonable waste disposal, has attracted
increasing attention on a global scale, particularly since multiple heavy metals and/or …

This study investigated the effects of metals (Fe3+, Cu2+, Ni2+, and Zn2+) and phenolic
compounds (PCs: hydroquinone, catechol, and phenol) loaded on biomass on the formation …

Biochar is chemically more reduced and reactive than the original feedstock biomass.
Graphite regions, functional groups, and redox-active metals in biochar contribute to its …

Soils and sediments worldwide contain appreciable amounts of thermally altered organic
matter (chars). Chars contain electroactive quinoid functional groups and polycondensed …

With the increased concentrations and kinds of refractory organic contaminants (ROCs) in
aquatic environments, many previous reviews systematically summarized the applications of …

Biochar, a charcoal-like product of the incomplete combustion of organic materials, is an
increasingly popular soil amendment designed to improve soil fertility. We investigated the …
