Biochar versus bone char for a sustainable inorganic arsenic mitigation in water: what needs to be done in future research?
Susan S.A. Alkurdi,Indika Herath,Jochen Bundschuh,Raed A. Al-Juboori,Meththika Vithanage,Dinesh Mohan +5 more
TL;DR: This critical review attempts to provide a comprehensive overview for the first time on the potential of bio- and bone-char in the immobilization of inorganic As in water to offer a rational assessment of what is existing and what needs to be done in future research as an implication for As toxicity of human health risks.

The prospective use of biochar as adsorption matrix - A review from a lifecycle perspective
TL;DR: The environmental evaluation of different schemes of biochar production in a life cycle perspective reports the environmental impacts of the different alternatives, with more sustainable profiles than the use of activated carbon as conventional adsorption material.

Multi-task prediction and optimization of hydrochar properties from high-moisture municipal solid waste: Application of machine learning on waste-to-resource
TL;DR: The results showed that deep neural network (DNN) model was the best one for joint prediction of both fuel properties (FP) and carbon capture and storage (CCS) stability of hydrochar with an average R2 and root mean squared error (RMSE) of 0.29.

Advances in research on the use of biochar in soil for remediation: a review
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the increasing research on the use of biochar in soil for the remediation of some organic and inorganic contaminants, and suggested a soil treatment plan based on the reviewed literature, which is suggested to guide the application of Biochar in various soil types (paddy soils, brownfield, and mine soils) at different pH levels (4-5.5) and contaminant concentrations (50 ǫmg  kg−1).

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.
