Journal ArticleDOI
Biochar aging in contaminated soil promotes Zn immobilization due to changes in biochar surface structural and chemical properties.
Abhay Kumar,Stephen Joseph,Ludmila Tsechansky,Karen Privat,Inga J. Schreiter,Christoph Schüth,Ellen R. Graber +6 more
TL;DR: Overall, Zn immobilization by the CM biochar was greater than by the GH biochar, due to its higher alkalinity, higher concentration of available negatively charged groups, and greater accretion of organo-mineral layers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sorption mechanisms of chlorinated hydrocarbons on biochar produced from different feedstocks: Conclusions from single- and bi-solute experiments.
TL;DR: Results indicate that biochars with a large fraction of non-carbonized phase facilitate non-competitive sorption and might be a valuable sorbent in mixed contaminant systems.
Book ChapterDOI
Production and Utilization of Biochar From Organic Wastes for Pollutant Control on Contaminated Sites
Anil Kumar,Inga J. Schreiter,Annette Wefer-Roehl,Ludmila Tsechansky,Christoph Schüth,Ellen R. Graber +5 more
TL;DR: Biochar is the product of heating carbon-rich biomass under low and controlled oxygen conditions as discussed by the authors, which can be used as agricultural soil amendments to improve soil physical properties, soil fertility, and crop yields.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanistic evaluation of biochar potential for plant growth promotion and alleviation of chromium-induced phytotoxicity in Ficus elastica
Abhay Kumar,Stephen Joseph,Ludmila Tsechansky,Inga J. Schreiter,Christoph Schüth,Sara Taherysoosavi,David R. G. Mitchell,Ellen R. Graber +7 more
TL;DR: The dual function of biochar in improving F. elastica performance and detoxifying Cr(VI) demonstrates that biochar holds much potential for enhancing phytorestoration of Cr( VI)-contaminated soils.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of water leaching on biochar properties and its impact on organic contaminant sorption.
TL;DR: In plant-based BCs, micropore volume and size distribution were altered, most likely through the un-blocking of pores, causing increased sorption via pore-filling for both TCE and PCE.
