Impact of continuous nine-year application of biochar on potassium supplying capacity of the soil

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionStraw biochar can significantly increase the content of available potassium (K) in soil, whereas its regulatory effect on soil K supply capacity remains unclear and lacks long-term field verification. To clarify the response mechanism of soil

Biochar Composts and Composites

Science Progress, 2015
Research has shown that the carbon content of wastes decreases during composting with an increase in the nitrogen content. This indicates that the increased microbial activity in the process results in an increased mineralisation rate of organic nitrogen.

Techno‐Economic Assessment of Biomethane and Biohydrogen Production From Victorian Wheat Straw

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Techno‐economic assessment of biomethane and biohydrogen production from Victorian wheat straw. Off‐grid renewable photovoltaic energy with a price down to 0.95 ¢/kWh was applied. Both approaches can make positive profits and negative carbon footprints.

AI-guided investigation of biochar’s efficacy in Pb immobilization for remediation of Pb contaminated agricultural land

Applied Biological Chemistry
This study evaluated the lead (Pb) immobilization efficiency of biochar in contaminated agricultural soil. The biochar was produced from a range of major biomass residues and pyrolyzed under well-controlled conditions.

Biochar and Trichoderma viride co-application boosts industrial soybean performance under continuous cropping stress via rhizosphere metabolic reprogramming

Industrial Crops and Products
Continuous monoculture of soybean, a key industrial crop for bio-based products, faces severe yield and quality declines due to soil degradation and microbial dysbiosis. Here, we investigated whether biochar and Trichoderma viride co-application (BT) can

Regulation of Calcium on Peanut Photosynthesis Under Low Night Temperature Stress

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2013
The effects of different levels of CaCl2 on photosynthesis under low night temperature (8°C) stress in peanuts were studied in order to find out the appropriate concentration of Ca2+ through the artificial climate chamber potted culture test. The results

Rich‐Electronic Interface Promoting Hydrogen‐Bond Reversible Formation for Ultra‐Stable and Energy‐Efficient Catalytic CO2 Capture

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Bridging micro–macro scales, a biomass‐derived Ni@C interface creates electron‐rich sites and hydrogen‐bond proton‐relay pathways, tuning interfacial charge and reversible hydrogen bond to enhance carbon capture capacity. Verified by in situ spectroscopy, multi‐scale simulations, and long‐term industrial testing, this system enables low‐temperature and

Mechanistic Insights Into Sustainable Catalytic Pyrolysis of Biomass‐Derived Ferulic Acid: The Role of Alumina Regeneration

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Surface‐bound ferulate phenolate complexes undergo styrene‐like polymerization on alumina, yielding a polymeric carbonaceous layer that progressively transforms into polyaromatic carbon domains with concomitant release of aromatic products, while parallel surface‐assisted decarboxylation produces 4‐vinylguaiacol. ABSTRACT A fundamental understanding of
