Abstract Emphasizing its potential for environmental sustainability, this review investigated how biochar—a carbon-rich material obtained from biomass pyrolysis—might be used into nuclear science and technology. High surface area, porosity, functional groups give biochar special adsorption capacity, which qualifies it as a instrument radiation cleanup improving energy economy in uses. From the historical development of physics to creative application waste management shielding well contribution sustainable energy, study covers several spheres. Biochar presents amazing efficiency adsorbing immobilizing radionuclides field management, therefore establishing itself viable substitute more traditional approaches. Its uses cover handling high-level radioactive materials treating low-level effluents. The paper also looks at using since carbonaceous character produces strong, light-weight protective barriers. Using controlled pyrolysis later changes, addresses advanced manufacturing processes customizing nuclear-grade particular Within industry, economic studies emphasize affordability possible financial gains biochar, market commercialization techniques. Lifetime analysis helps evaluate effects sustainability by stressing part carbon sequestration lowering ecological footprints. discusses safety regulatory issues, artificial intelligence machine learning might optimization, limits difficulties biochar. Practical case highlight success environments. ends placing major component creating technology, calls continuous research, cooperation, creativity. Graphical
