Biochar and bacteria inoculated biochar enhanced Cd and Cu immobilization and enzymatic activity in a polluted soil.

TLDR
The results showed that, compared to the single biochar amendment, the application of biochar inoculated with NT-2 strain significantly increased the soil pH at the initial stage of incubation, and followed by a slight decline to a neutral-alkaline range during the reaction.
