Biochars are biological residues combusted under low oxygen conditions, resulting in a
porous, low density carbon rich material. Their large surface areas and cation exchange …

Evidence is accumulating that sorption of organic chemicals to soils and sediments can be
described by “dual-mode sorption”: absorption in amorphous organic matter (AOM) and …

Biochar application to soils is being considered as a means to sequester carbon (C) while
concurrently improving soil functions. The main focus of this report is providing a critical …

Biochar (BC) produced from agricultural crop residues has proven effective in sorbing
organic contaminants. This study evaluated the ability of dairy-manure derived biochar to …

Biochar produced from waste biomass is increasingly being recognized as a green, cost-
effective amendment for environmental remediation. This work was to determine the ability …

Microplastic (MP) pollution in soil has been becoming an emerging environmental hot spot,
but little is known about the interaction between MPs and chemical contaminants in soil. In …

The objective of this study was to analyze the behavior of activated carbons with different
chemical and textural natures in the adsorption of three tetracyclines (TCs)(tetracycline …

The main objective of this study was to investigate the key factors and mechanisms of
antibiotic adsorption on crop residue-derived black carbon, as well as the relative …

This review highlights the major progress over the last decade on characterization of
geochemically heterogeneous soil/sediment organic matter (SOM) and the impacts of SOM …

Black carbon (BC) plays a potentially important role in the availability of pollutants in soils
and sediments. Recent evidence points to the possible attenuation of the high surface …
