Improving the chemical quality of sandy-textured soil and shallot (Allium cepa L.) yields using biochar and clay

open access: yesJurnal Ilmiah Pertanian, 2023
Sandy soils are known as low-fertility soils due to the soil's limited physical, chemical, and biological properties. Rice husk biochar and clay soil are organic and inorganic materials that can improve soil quality levels.

Residual Effect of Rice Husk Biochar on Growth and Yield of Aerobic Rice

open access: yesAgrotechnology Research Journal, 2022
Biochar is a carbon-rich solid material made by pyrolyzing agricultural residual biomass, and it decomposes much more slowly than the biomass from which it is made. Biochar has been shown to have agronomic benefits. Biochar can provide agronomic benefits for a longer period due to its persistence in the soil.

Ammonium adsorption - desorption using rice husk biochar

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2021
Abstract Rice husk was utilized into biochar by pyrolysis and used as adsorbent for ammonium removal. Rice husk biochar (RHB) was produced at temperature of 350°C, 400°C, 450°C, 500°C, and 550°C. Characteristics of biochar were analyzed by moisture content, ash content, pH Zero Charge and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy ...
