Composition of PAHs in Biochar and Implications for Biochar Production [PDF]
ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering, 2022 The content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in biochar has been studied extensively; however, the links between biomass feedstock, production process parameters, and the speciation of PAHs in biochar are understudied. Such an understanding is crucial, as the health effects of individual PAHs vary greatly. Naphthalene (NAP) is the least toxic

Biochar’s Leacheates Affect the Abscisic Acid Pathway in Rice Seedlings Under Low Temperature
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Organic molecules of biochar’s leacheates are known to increase the cold resistance of rice seedlings. Yet, it remains unclear whether the organic molecules of biochar leacheates can interact with the abscisic acid (ABA) signaling pathway associated with

Biochar is a carbon-rich material that can be produced from waste biomass, making it a sustainable alternative to activated carbon. Biochar production is a carbon capture and storage strategy, and its physicochemical characteristics make it a useful additive for many processes, including the biological treatment of organic waste.
