Biochar for agronomy, animal farming, anaerobic digestion, composting, water treatment, soil remediation, construction, energy storage, and carbon sequestration: a review

Environmental Chemistry Letters, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 20(4), P. 2385 - 2485

Published: May 7, 2022

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.

Ammonia induced toxico‐physiological responses in fish and management interventions

Reviews in Aquaculture, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 15(2), P. 452 - 479

Published: Aug. 26, 2022

Abstract Intensification of aquaculture practices resulted in increased ammonia production the culture systems. Lack proper management system will result elevated ammonia, which adversely affects species. Moreover, with ongoing global warming, fish metabolism and excretion are expected to increase. This, coupled hypoxic condition, exacerbates severity toxicity. Ammonia toxicity can alter growth biochemical, physiological immunological responses fish. Several factors such as pH, temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, species life stages fish, physical activity, feeding stress influence A understanding these is a prerequisite for successful aquaculture. The changes caused by hinder homeostasis that eventually increases their susceptibility diseases. This review discusses affecting various physiological, haematological, histological induced ammonia. Furthermore, summarizes dietary interventions mitigate

Abstract This study addresses the development of environmentally friendly biocomposites using Opuntia cladode fiber and palm flower biochar for industrial applications. Derived sustainably, these materials significantly enhance mechanical properties, exemplified by Composite C3 (Resin 57wt.%, Fiber 40 wt%, Biochar 3 wt%) with notable flexural strength (217 MPa), tensile (178 impact (7.2 J), hardness (92 Shore-D). However, a 5% concentration led to slight property decline. Thermal conductivity increased proportionally concentration, ranging from 0.36 0.49 W/mK, acting as an effective lubricant. influenced water absorption rates, mitigated silane surface treatment.

Unlocking the potential of biowaste: Sustainable strategies to produce valuable industrial products

Journal of Environmental Quality, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Jan. 29, 2025

Abstract Global solid waste generation is expected to double by 2050 from the present annual level of 2.01 metric ton. Traditional biowaste treatment methods, such as landfilling and incineration, cannot meet need deal with gigantic amounts reduce environmental harm. This review critically evaluates existing sustainable management strategies highlighting their role in transitioning a “reuse recovery” paradigm. Sustainable refers conserving resources protecting human health, society, environment. In this context, examines current advancements potential trends using widely available novel applications produce key biofuels (such biogas biodiesel) corrosion inhibitors, asbestos‐free brake pads, nutrient‐rich functional foods, bio‐cement, bio‐based fertilizer, biodegradable plastic. Among these, biowaste‐to‐energy conversion (e.g., production) plastic synthesis emerge particularly impactful due scalability address both reduction resource recovery goals. The strategic utilization into products holds significant promise mitigating sustainability problems, offering renewable alternatives that are free harmful additives.
