Much effort has been made to use biochar to catalyze organic solid waste conversion into
value-added products. Biochar has a high specific surface area and abundant functional …

Abstract Biofouling is the Achilles Heel of membrane processes. The accumulation of
organic foulants and growth of microorganisms on the membrane surface reduce the …

A series of rice straw hydrochars were produced through a microwave-assisted
hydrothermal treatment method, characterized and used for the adsorption of three organics …

Bioproducts from biomass feedstocks and organic wastes have shown great potential to
address challenges across food-energy-water systems. However, bioproducts production is …

Biochar from biomass and waste is a valuable component of various urban green
infrastructures, including green roofs, permeable pavements, green walls, and green …

A drastic reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from electricity generation will be needed
to mitigate climate change to a safe level. Residual biomass from agriculture is an …

Meticulous research has been done to observe and measure the impact of biochar on soil-
water retention properties. On the contrary, very little research is conducted on quantifying …

Biochar has the potential to increase crop yields when applied to agricultural land. We
integrate agronomic and economic simulation models to determine the expected yield …

Hunger and undernourishment are increasing global challenges as the world's population
continuously grows. Consequently, boosting productivity must be implemented to reach the …

Growing energy demand due to population growth and economic progress has led to the
need for intensive climate change mitigation. Negative emissions technologies (NETs) will …
