Iron-modified phosphorus- and silicon-based biochars exhibited various influences on arsenic, cadmium, and lead accumulation in rice and enzyme activities in a paddy soil

Xing Yang et al.

Summary: The use of functionalized biochar amendments can reduce the accumulation of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in rice grains. Specifically, silicon (Si)-rich and phosphorus (P)-rich biochars can decrease the concentration of arsenic (As) in rice grains, while iron-modified biochars can enhance rice grain yield. Additionally, P-rich biochar can increase the activity of beneficial bacteria in the soil and decrease lead (Pb) concentration in rice grains. However, iron-modified P-rich biochar can increase cadmium (Cd) and Pb concentration in rice grains.

Pros and Cons of Biochar to Soil Potentially Toxic Element Mobilization and Phytoavailability: Environmental Implications

Sabry M. Shaheen et al.

Summary: This study critically reviews the effects of biochar (BC) on the mobilization, phytoextraction, phytostabilization, and bioremediation of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in contaminated soils. The potential mechanisms of interaction between BC and PTEs in soils are discussed in detail. The review demonstrates the contradictory effects of BC on PTE mobilization and highlights the opportunities for using BC as a mobilizing agent to enhance phytoremediation of PTE-contaminated soils.

Manganese oxide-modified biochar: production, characterization and applications for the removal of pollutants from aqueous environments a review

Sabry M. Shaheen et al.

Summary: This review article discusses the development and use of manganese oxide modified biochar (MnOBC) for the removal of organic and inorganic pollutants from water. The preparation and characterization of MnOBC, as well as its capacity for pollutant removal, are explored in relation to various factors. The review also examines the mechanisms of pollutant removal by MnOBC and the fate of sorbed pollutants. The impregnation of biochar with MnOx enhances its sorption capacity, making it an effective biosorbent for remediation of contaminated water environments.

Stepwise redox changes alter the speciation and mobilization of phosphorus in hydromorphic soils

Sabry M. Shaheen et al.

Summary: The study reveals that in arable soils, P, Fe2+, and OC mobilize at E-H <= 200 mV, while P immobilizes at E-H > 200 mV due to strong binding with Fe3+. Additionally, pH changes and interactions with Fe3+, organic carbon, and carbonates play a key role in the migration and retention of P during redox processes.

Magnetic biochar composite decorated with amino-containing biopolymer for phosphorus recovery from swine wastewater

Yichen Zhang et al.

Summary: Amino hybrid biopolymer-decorated magnetic biochar composites derived from green tea waste were effective in recovering phosphorus from aqueous solution and swine wastewater. The adsorption process followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm. The composites showed high phosphorus recovery rates from swine wastewater and demonstrated reusability. Additionally, the P-loaded biochar composites could potentially be used as alternative P fertilizers.

Summary: This article reviews the preparation and characterization of nZVIBC and FeOxBC, and their application in TE removal. The combination of BC and nZVI, FeOx, or Fe salts enhances the adsorption capability for TEs through surface modifications. The complex sorption mechanisms of BC and nZVI, FeOx, or Fe salts for TEs are specific to each TE. Significant research and technological advancements are identified for the use of nZVIBC and FeOxBC as novel and effective sorbents in the remediation of TE-contaminated water.

Lignite, thermally-modified and Ca/Mg-modified lignite for phosphate remediation

Hasara Samaraweera et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that chemically- and thermally-modified lignite with Ca2+ and Mg2+ cations provides a positively charged surface, improving aqueous phosphate uptake. The presence of mineral phases promotes more efficient phosphate uptake by CTL compared to raw or thermally treated lignite. Phosphorous uptake by CTL occurs through stoichiometric precipitation of various calcium and magnesium phosphates, offering high uptake capacities.
