Open AccessMikania micrantha Kunth and its derived biochar impacts on heavy metal bioavailability and siderophore-related genes during chicken manure composting
Biochar can potentially reduce heavy metals (HMs) mobility and bioavailability during composting. However, siderophores secreted by functional microbes might lead to the re-mobilization of metals like Cu and Z...

Open AccessConversion of infected pine wood into energy charcoal material based on a transportable carbonization system
To prevent the spread of pine wilt disease (PWD), a transportable carbonization equipment was designed for in-situ treatment of infected pine wood (IPW). The equipment killed all pine wood nematodes (PWNs) in ...

Open AccessBiochar as a green solution to drive the soil carbon pump
Biochar is a nature-based green solution to lift soil carbon storage and mitigate carbon release. Here, we propose a novel concept of biochar carbon pump (BCP) that bridges microbial carbon pump (MCP) and mine...

Open AccessEffects of microplastics on soil carbon pool and terrestrial plant performance
Soil, as a primary repository of plastic debris, faces an escalating influx of microplastics. Microplastics have the potential to decrease soil bulk density and pH, as well as alter soil pore structure and agg...

Open AccessVariable frequency microwave induced CO2 Boudouard reaction over biochar
The Boudouard reaction presents promising application prospects as a straightforward and efficient method for CO2 conversion. However, its advancement is hindered primarily by elevated activation energy and a dim...

Open AccessReusable magnetically-modified Enteromorpha prolifera-based biochar hydrogels: competitive removal mechanism for metal-organic dye composite contaminants
Dyes and heavy metals pollute the environment. Biochar-based hydrogel is an excellent adsorbent, but the competitive adsorption mechanism associated with the removal of pollutants using biochar is yet to be un...

Open AccessStructure-oriented conversions of plastics to carbon nanomaterials
The accumulation of waste plastics has caused serious environmental issues due to their unbiodegradable nature and hazardous additives. Converting waste plastics to different carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) is a p...

Open AccessAnalysis of the simultaneous adsorption mechanism of ammonium and phosphate on magnesium-modified biochar and the slow release effect of fertiliser
To decrease the eutrophication caused by nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in water, magnesium-modified corn stalk biochar (MgB) was prepared under the synergistic impact of the multi-pyrolysis temperatures and Mg2...

A composite of Ni–Fe–Zn layered double hydroxides/biochar for atrazine removal from aqueous solution
This study assembled corn stalk-derived biochar (BC) with layered double hydroxide (LDH) through a rapid coprecipitation of biochar and metal (Ni/Fe/Zn) hydroxide precipitates. A BC and LDH composite (BC-LDH) ...

Synergistic effects of biochar/microbial inoculation on the enhancement of pig manure composting
With the aim to comparatively investigate the effect of the addition of additives such as biochar (BC), microbial inoculation (MI) and biochar/microbial inoculation (BCMI) on composting enhancement, nitrogen c...
