Black carbon (BC) is ubiquitous in the environments and participates various biogeochemical processes. Both positive negative effects of BC (especially biochar) on ecosystem have been identified, which are mainly derived from its diverse physicochemical properties. Nevertheless, few studies systematically examined linkage between evolution molecular structure with resulted properties, environmental functions as well potential risk, critical for understanding behavior utilization a multifunctional product. Thus, this review highlights during pyrolysis impact properties sorption behavior, stability, risk terrestrial aqueous ecosystems. Given wide application important role processes, future research should focus following: (1) establishing methodology to more precisely predict design basis phase transformation biomass; (2) developing an assessment system evaluate long-term effect stabilization bioavailability contaminants, agrochemicals, nutrient elements soils; (3) elucidating interaction mechanisms plant roots, microorganisms, soil components.

Abstract In the context of climate change and circular economy, biochar has recently found many applications in various sectors as a versatile recycled material. Here, we review application biochar-based for carbon sink, covering agronomy, animal farming, anaerobic digestion, composting, environmental remediation, construction, energy storage. The ultimate storage reservoirs are soils, civil infrastructure, landfills. Biochar-based fertilisers, which combine traditional fertilisers with nutrient carrier, promising agronomy. use feed additive animals shows benefits terms growth, gut microbiota, reduced enteric methane production, egg yield, endo-toxicant mitigation. Biochar enhances digestion operations, primarily biogas generation upgrading, performance sustainability, mitigation inhibitory impurities. composts, controls release greenhouse gases microbial activity. Co-composted improves soil properties crop productivity. Pristine engineered can also be employed water remediation to remove pollutants. added cement or asphalt, thus conferring structural functional advantages. Incorporating biocomposites insulation, electromagnetic radiation protection moisture control. Finally, synthesising materials requires additional functionalisation.

Increasing population and subsequent food requirement puts a lot of onus on agriculture worldwide. However, agricultural output is constantly influenced by several factors such as small land holdings, lack proper mechanization, occurrence abiotic biotic stresses. Drought stress one which causes major setbacks to productivity every year. Water scarcity due decline in rainfall increased frequency dry spells give rise drought conditions. Often accompanied other detrimental effects like salinity, heat attack pathogens. In response plants undergo physiological morphological modifications reduced transpiration photosynthesis rate, osmotic adjustments, repressed root shoot growth, overproduction reactive oxygen species (ROS), modified signalling pathways, senescence. These can cause permanent injury the plant hence there need develop mitigation strategies. Employment nanoparticles, film farming, use resistant varieties, super-absorbent hydrogels, biochar are some techniques used ameliorate stress. Though, most these practices labour-intensive expensive with limited benefits.
