Machine learning and computational chemistry to improve biochar fertilizers: a review

Environmental Chemistry Letters, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 21(6), С. 3159 - 3244

Опубликована: Авг. 17, 2023

Abstract Traditional fertilizers are highly inefficient, with a major loss of nutrients and associated pollution. Alternatively, biochar loaded phosphorous is sustainable fertilizer that improves soil structure, stores carbon in soils, provides plant the long run, yet most biochars not optimal because mechanisms ruling properties poorly known. This issue can be solved by recent developments machine learning computational chemistry. Here we review phosphorus-loaded emphasis on chemistry, learning, organic acids, drawbacks classical fertilizers, production, phosphorus loading, release. Modeling techniques allow for deciphering influence individual variables biochar, employing various supervised models tailored to different types. Computational chemistry knowledge factors control binding, e.g., type compound, constituents, mineral surfaces, binding motifs, water, solution pH, redox potential. Phosphorus release from controlled coexisting anions, adsorbent dosage, initial concentration, temperature. Pyrolysis temperatures below 600 °C enhance functional group retention, while 450 increase plant-available phosphorus. Lower pH values promote release, higher hinder it. Physical modifications, such as increasing surface area pore volume, maximize adsorption capacity biochar. Furthermore, acid affects low molecular weight acids being advantageous utilization. Lastly, biochar-based 2–4 times slower than conventional fertilizers.
