Biochar is mainly used as a soil amendment and for carbon sequestration; while other
applications such as environmental remediation may be equally important. Recently …

Biochar has unveiled a new avenue for carbon (C) sequestration and has shown the
potential to increase agricultural productivity. Although there is still debate about the …

Biochar, a form of pyrogenic carbon, can contribute to agricultural and environmental
sustainability by increasing soil reactivity. In soils, biochar could change its role over time …

Abstract Biochar (BC), a low-cost, porous and carbon-rich material, exhibits excellent
potential as an adsorbent in the immobilization and removal of environmental contaminants …

Biochar is produced by pyrolysis of biomass residues under limited oxygen conditions. In
recent years, biochar as an amendment has received increasing attention on composting …

Nicosulfuron is among the sulfonylurea herbicides that are widely used to control annual
and perennial grass weeds in cornfields. However, nicosulfuron residues in the environment …

Biochar can be effectively used in soil amendment, environmental remediation as well as
carbon sequestration. However, some inherent characteristics of pristine biochars (PBCs) …

To better use biochar as a sustainable soil management and carbon (C) sequestration
technique, it is necessary to understand the biochar aging process in soil, as its quantity and …

Biochar is beneficial for soil amendment, but further research is still required on changes in
its physicochemical properties during aging, especially in oxygen-containing functional …

The aim of the present study was to investigate the sorption of atrazine and nicosulfuron
onto several experimentally produced biochars, as well as to understand the influence of …
