Biochar-activated persulfate for organic contaminants removal: Efficiency, mechanisms and influencing factors.
TL;DR: Results indicate using biochar to activate PS for degradation of AO7 contaminated water is a promising method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Burkholderia phytofirmans PsJN and tree twigs derived biochar together retrieved Pb-induced growth, physiological and biochemical disturbances by minimizing its uptake and translocation in mung bean (Vigna radiata L.).
Muhammad Naveed,Adnan Mustafa,Syeda Qura-Tul-Ain Azhar,Muhammad Kamran,Zahir Ahmad Zahir,Avelino Núñez-Delgado +5 more
TL;DR: It can be inferred that interactive use of biochar and B. phytofirmans PsJN provides an efficient innovative strategy to repossess Pb induced growth, physiological, biochemical and oxidative disturbances in mung bean.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the feasibility of integrating anaerobic digestion (AD) with thermochemical processes (pyrolysis, gasification and hydrothermal carbonization) to decrease adverse effects of wastes on environment and health, and to enhance the resource efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Residual perfluorochemicals in the biochar from sewage sludge
TL;DR: The use of the sludge biochar in the agricultural environment should be re-evaluated, since the concentrations of PFCs in the sewage sludge showed no significant decrease after thermal process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Retention and release of diethyl phthalate in biochar-amended vegetable garden soils
TL;DR: In this article, a laboratory study was conducted to evaluate the effect of biochar on soil adsorption and desorption of DEP and showed that using biochar to remediate contaminated soil contaminated with DEP can potentially reduce the bioavailability and improve soil properties.

Dynamic molecular structure of plant biomass-derived black carbon (biochar)
TL;DR: A molecular-level assessment of the physical organization and chemical complexity of biomass-derived chars and, specifically, that of aromatic carbon in char structures suggests the existence of four distinct categories of char consisting of a unique mixture of chemical phases and physical states.
