Short-term effects of biochar on soil heavy metal mobility are controlled by intra-particle diffusion and soil pH increase

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of biochar on the mobility of metals in soils are investigated, focusing on a possible kinetic limitation by transport in biochar particles, the evolution of the biochar mineral phases, and the effect of bio char on soil pH.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plant growth and metal uptake by a non-hyperaccumulating species (Lolium perenne) and a Cd-Zn hyperaccumulator (Noccaea caerulescens) in contaminated soils amended with biochar

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of biochar amendments on metal uptake by two contrasted plants grown on metal-contaminated soils were investigated, including a non-hyper-accumulating plant (Lolium perenne) and a Cd-and Zn-hyperaccumulator (Noccea caerulescens).
Journal ArticleDOI

Toward the Standardization of Biochar Analysis: The COST Action TD1107 Interlaboratory Comparison

TL;DR: An interlaboratory comparison in which 22 laboratories from 12 countries analyzed three different types of biochar for 38 physical-chemical parameters with their preferential methods provides recommendations to improve and harmonize specific methods for biochar analysis in the future.
Journal ArticleDOI

Root development of non-accumulating and hyperaccumulating plants in metal-contaminated soils amended with biochar

TL;DR: Biochar can have antagonist effects on plant metal uptake by decreasing metal availability, on one hand, and by increasing root surface and inducing root proliferation, on the other hand.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biochars in soils: towards the required level of scientific understanding

TL;DR: In this article, the current level of scientific understanding (LOSU) regarding the consequences of biochar application to soil were explored, and the highest future research priorities regarding biochar's effects in soils were: functional redundancy within soil microbial communities, bioavailability of bio-char's contaminants to soil biota, soil organic matter stability, GHG emissions, soil formation, soil hydrology, nutrient cycling due to microbial priming as well as altered rhizosphere ecology, and soil pH buffering capacity.
