Sustainable microwave-assisted synthesis of high-quality carbon nanotubes from rice husk biochar

open access: yesIndustrial Crops and Products
The conventional synthesis of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) often involves high temperatures, inert atmospheres, non-renewable precursors, and elevated costs. This study explores rice husk, a ligno-cellulose-rich agricultural waste, as a sustainable precursor ...

Economic Feasibility of Rice Husk Biochar Application in Paddy Production

open access: yesAsian Journal of Environment & Ecology
The study examined the effects of incorporating rice husk biochar into the soil as a natural fertilizer for paddy production. It was applied in four different treatment levels (T1, T2, T3, T4). The analysis focused on production costs, yield, gross income, and benefit-cost ratio (BCR) during dry and wet conditions.

Adsorption of Metaldehyde by Oil Palm Kernel Biochar and Rice Husk Biochar: A Comparative Study

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
Metaldehyde is a toxic molluscicide that has the potential to contaminate water supplies and damage aquatic life. Existing water treatment methods are ineffective at removing it from water bodies. In this study, oil palm kernel biochar (OPKB) and rice husk biochar (RHB) were utilized to assess metaldehyde adsorption.
