Lead and cadmium clean removal from wastewater by sustainable biochar derived from poplar saw dust
TL;DR: In this paper, the adsorption kinetics and isotherms of Pb2+/Cd2+ on biochar were determined, and the maximum adsoreption amount of P b2+ is 62.68% while that of Cd 2+ is 49.32% at pH 5 based on Langmuir equation.

The effects of rice husk char on ammonium, nitrate and phosphate retention and leaching in loamy soil
Endita Prima Ari Pratiwi,Endita Prima Ari Pratiwi,Aurelia Karina Hillary,Tetsuro Fukuda,Yoshiyuki Shinogi +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, batch sorption experiments were carried out to determine the ability of biochar produced from rice husk to adsorb or release three major nutrient ions: ammonium (NH4+), nitrate (NO3−), and phosphate (PO43−).

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.
