Biochar is a carbon-rich by-product of the thermal conversion organic feedstocks and primarily used as soil amendment. Identification quantification biochar properties are important to ensure optimal outcomes for agricultural or environmental applications. Advanced spectroscopic techniques have recently been adopted in characterization. However, characterization approaches rely entirely on user's choice accessibility new technology. The selection proper methods vital accurately consistently assess properties. This review critically evaluates current proximate, ultimate, physicochemical, surface structural analyses, various
