Soil-water retention behavior of compacted biochar-amended clay: a novel landfill final cover material
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of biochar application ratio, compaction water content (CWC), and degree of compaction (DOC) on soil-water retention characteristics of BAC at high soil suction are not well understood.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhance SO2 adsorption performance of biochar modified by CO2 activation and amine impregnation
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of the pore structure and nitrogen functionality on SO2 adsorption were explored, and the results showed that after CO2 activation, the specific surface area of biochar increased from 56.91m2/g to 755m 2/g, while this figure dropped to 25.54m 2 /g after impregnation with methyldiethanolamine (MDEA).

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.
