Standardization and micromechanistic study of tetracycline adsorption by biochar

Biochar
Modification serves as an excellent approach to  enhancing the adsorption performance of biochar for tetracycline. Selective modification further allows the attainment of biochar materials that are not only more efficient but also cost-effective. However,

Effects of biochar carried microbial agent on compost quality, greenhouse gas emission and bacterial community during sheep manure composting

Biochar, 2023
Although composting is a very effective way to dispose agricultural wastes, its development is greatly limited by the low compost quality and greenhouse gas emissions.

Metarhizium anisopliaeMitigates the Phytotoxicity of Lead and Nanoplastics on Rice by Modifying Physiological, Transcriptomic, Metabolomic Activities, and Soil Microbiome

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Metarhizium anisopliae alleviates the phytotoxic effects of polyethylene nanoplastics (NP) and lead (Pb) in rice by decreasing Pb uptake, restoring antioxidant and hormonal equilibrium, and promoting growth. Additionally, the fungus modifies the rhizosphere microbiota, enhancing both contaminant tolerance and plant growth, thereby effectively ...

Corn cob biochar increases soil culturable bacterial abundance without enhancing their capacities in utilizing carbon sources in Biolog Eco-plates

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2017
Biochar has been shown to influence soil microbial communities in terms of their abundance and diversity. However, the relationship among microbial abundance, structure and C metabolic traits is not well studied under biochar application.

Long-term effects of biochar one-off application on soil physicochemical properties, salt concentration, nutrient availability, enzyme activity, and rice yield of highly saline-alkali paddy soils: based on a 6-year field experiment

Biochar
A long-term (6-year), one-off application of biochar was conducted in a highly saline-alkali paddy field. Biochar consistently decreased soil BD, increased Tp, Ks , and improved soil aggregates.

Tuning Li+ and Na+ Functionality in Renewable Carbon Electroactive Material Through Site‐Specific Nanostructural Disorder

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a selective thermal transformation of polycarbonate into hybrid carbon materials. The structured carbon enhances electrochemical performance, particularly in lithium‐ion systems. Investigations reveal improved bimetallic ion diffusivity through the hybrid microstructure, contributing to excellent charge kinetics.

Conversation of pesticide residues into ammonium nitrogen (NH4 +-N) through AOPs and its fertilization effect on lettuce growth

Biochar
Eliminating pesticide residues in soil through the Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) has been attracted a lot of attention in recent years. However, the potential of converting them into small molecular nutrients such as ammonium nitrogen (NH4 +-N) has

Effect of Pyrolysis on the Removal of Antibiotic Resistance Genes and Class I Integrons from Municipal Wastewater Biosolids [PDF]

, 2018
Wastewater biosolids represent a significant reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). While current biosolids treatment technologies can reduce ARG levels in residual wastewater biosolids, observed removal rates vary substantially.

Economics of land‐based carbon mitigation

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Agricultural land holds tremendous potential to contribute to net zero greenhouse gas emission goals by providing low carbon renewable energy to displace fossil fuels and by serving as a sink for sequestering carbon in the soil with climate‐smart practices. This potential is, however, far from being realized.

Contribution of Soluble Minerals in Biochar to Pb2+ Adsorption in Aqueous Solutions

BioResources, 2017
Biochar is widely used as an adsorbent to remove heavy metals from aqueous solutions. To investigate the contribution of soluble minerals (mainly anions) to Pb2+ removal in solution, wheat straw biochar was washed with deionized water to remove soluble ...
