Biochar: Production, properties and emerging role as a support for enzyme immobilization

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the recent findings in biochar production, factors affecting the biochar properties and biochar engineering is presented, and an insight into the potential of biochar as an immobilization support in terms of its properties, contributing factors and comparison with other support materials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of organic amendments of soil on growth and productivity of three common crops viz. Zea mays, Phaseolus vulgaris and Abelmoschus esculentus

TL;DR: The study revealed that different amendments affected crops differently and the pre-treatment of crop/plant residues like vermicomposting are invariably beneficial and contributed to crop growth and available N in soil.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of gap size and soil properties on microbial biomass in a subtropical humid forest of north-east India

TL;DR: Results indicate that any fluctuation in microbial biomass related nutrient cycling processes in conjunction with the associated microclimate variation may affect the pattern of regeneration of tree seedlings in the gaps and hence be related with their size.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamics of soil microbial biomass C, N and P in disturbed and undisturbed stands of a tropical wet-evergreen forest

TL;DR: In this article, the spatial and temporal dynamics of soil microbial biomass and its role in soil organic matter and nutrientflux in disturbed tropical wet-evergreen forests were analyzed in Arunachal Pradesh, India.
Journal ArticleDOI
