Biochar has triggered a black gold rush in environmental studies as carbon-rich material with well-developed porous structure and tunable functionality. While much attention been placed on its apparent ability to store carbon the ground, immobilize soil pollutants, improve fertility, temporally evolving situ performance these roles must not be overlooked. After field application, various factors, such temperature variations, precipitation events microbial activities, can lead fragmentation, dissolution, oxidation, thus causing drastic changes physicochemical properties. Direct monitoring of biochar-amended soils provide good evidence temporal evolution, but this requires long-term trials. Various artificial aging methods, chemical wet–dry cycling mineral modification, have therefore designed mimic natural mechanisms. Here we evaluate science biochar aging, critically summarize aging-induced properties, offer state-of-the-art for simulation approaches. In addition, implications are also considered regarding potential development deployment amendment. We suggest that improved prediction, methods shift from qualitative quantitative Furthermore, preaging may serve synthesize engineered biochars green sustainable applications.

Numerous harmful chemicals are introduced every year in the environment through anthropogenic and geological activities raising global concerns of their ecotoxicological effects decontamination strategies. Biochar technology has been recognized as an important pillar for recycling biomass, contributing to carbon capture bioenergy industries, remediation contaminated soil, sediments water. This paper aims critically review application potential biochar with a special focus on synergistic antagonistic contaminant-degrading microorganisms single mixed-contaminated systems. Owing high specific surface area, porous structure, compatible chemistry, can support proliferation activity microorganisms. A combination remove variety contaminants gained popularity recent years alongside traditional chemical physical technologies. The microbial compatibility be improved by optimizing parameters so that toxic pollutant release is minimized, biofilm formation encouraged, populations enhanced. Biocompatible thus shows bioremediation organic harboring populations, releasing enzymes, protecting beneficial from immediate toxicity surrounding contaminants. recommends biochar-microorganism co-deployment holds great removal thereby reducing risk human environmental health.

With the global food deficit increasing and rising climate change issues, there is a need to find green solutions improve soil fertility productivity while enhancing biochemical quality reducing ecological impact of agriculture. Biochar potentially cost-effective, carbonaceous resource with many agricultural environmental applications. As amendment, it improves physical properties increases productivity—particularly over long-term—increasing aggregation, water retention, pH, microbial activities, thus, improving overall quality, helping reduce chemical fertilizer needs time. The extent biochar’s on physiochemical varies depending biochar source, type, size, inherent characteristics, cropping system, etc. Moreover, has significant potential in remediation, especially through its unique adsorption capable capture immobilize pollutants such as metal(loid)s, organic pollutants, hazardous emerging contaminants microplastics. Further, also emerged key strategic, cost-effective material tackle issues mitigation, net greenhouse gas emission minimize warming potential. However, knowledge gap remains understanding long-term persistence agroecosystem, optimal application rate for diversity biochar-soil-crop-environmental conditions, interaction carbon stock, specific mechanisms effect biotic properties, quantification sequestration, emissions, synergy or antagonistic effects other sources compost, manure, residues, etc., modification applications associated human risks long-term. Further research needed evaluate impacts types sizes recommend suitable practices based management system. Also, be finetuned wider target pressing pollution.

Synthesis Methods, Properties, and Modifications of Biochar-Based Materials for Wastewater Treatment: A Review

Resources, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 13(1), С. 8 - 8

Опубликована: Янв. 5, 2024

The global impact of water and soil contamination has become a serious issue that affects the world all living beings. In this sense, multiple treatment alternatives have been developed at different scales to improve quality. Among them, biochar suitable alternative for environmental remediation due its high efficiency low cost, raw material used production comes from residual biomass. A is carbonaceous with interesting physicochemical properties (e.g., surface area, porosity, functional groups), which can be prepared by synthesis methods using agricultural wastes (branches banana rachis, cocoa shells, cane bagasse, among others) as feedstock. This state-of-the-art review based on general description remediation. Biochar’s production, synthesis, uses also analyzed. addition, work shows some thus several applications, like removing heavy metals, oil, dyes, other toxic pollutants. Physical chemical modifications, precursors, dopants, promoting agents Fe N species) discussed. Finally, primary corresponding mechanism quality (via adsorption, heterogeneous photocatalysis, advanced oxidation processes) described, both laboratory medium large scales. Considering advantages, methods, promising potential mitigate problems improving quality, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, circular economy through biomass, generating value-added products uses.
