Influences of feedstock sources and pyrolysis temperature on the properties of biochar and functionality as adsorbents: A meta-analysis.

TL;DR: Discriminant analysis of data from 533 published datasets revealed that biochar derived from hardwood and softwood generally have greater surface area and carbon content, but lower content of oxygen and mineral constituents, than manure- and grass-derived biochars (GBC).

Review on biomass feedstocks, pyrolysis mechanism and physicochemical properties of biochar: State-of-the-art framework to speed up vision of circular bioeconomy

TL;DR: The biochar is a solid carbon-rich, porous material produced by the thermochemical conversion of a diverse range of biomass feedstocks under an inert atmosphere (i.e., in the absence of oxygen) as discussed by the authors.
