TL;DR: Biochar is produced as a charred material with high surface area and abundant functional groups by pyrolysis, which refers to the process of thermochemical decomposition of organic material at elev...
Journal ArticleDOI
Remediation of poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contaminated soils - To mobilize or to immobilize or to degrade?
Nanthi Bolan,Binoy Sarkar,Yubo Yan,Qiao Li,Hasintha Wijesekara,Kurunthachalam Kannan,Daniel C.W. Tsang,Marina Schauerte,Julian Bosch,Hendrik M. Noll,Yong Sik Ok,Kirk G.

TL;DR: Future studies should focus on quantifying the potential leaching of the mobilized PFAS in the absence of removal by plant and biota uptake or soil washing, and regular monitoring of the long-term stability of the immobilized PFAS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cadmium solubility and bioavailability in soils amended with acidic and neutral biochar.
Fangjie Qi,Dane Lamb,Ravi Naidu,Nanthi Bolan,Yubo Yan,Yong Sik Ok,Mohammad Mahmudur Rahman,Girish Choppala +7 more
TL;DR: If only leaching mitigation of Cd under acidic conditions is required, application of low pH biochars (e.g., WS biochar) may be valuable.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal stability of biochar and its effects on cadmium sorption capacity.
Fangjie Qi,Yubo Yan,Yubo Yan,Dane Lamb,Ravi Naidu,Nanthi Bolan,Yanju Liu,Yong Sik Ok,Scott W. Donne,Kirk T. Semple +9 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that after potential burning in wildfires (200-500°C), biochars could have higher sorption capacity for metals by remaining minerals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution, behaviour, bioavailability and remediation of poly- and per-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in solid biowastes and biowaste-treated soil
