Biochar Applications - by Ahmad Hussaini Jagaba & Nuhu Dalhat Muazu & Mohamed Hasnain Isa & Manfred Lübken & Abdullahi Kilaco Usman (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Biochar Applications: Advances in Environmental Remediation and Resource Recovery provides a combined approach between environmental science and environmental engineering that involves the improvement of the natural environment, or the remediation, of polluted sites. In addition, it discusses bioprocess engineering, including the synthesis, modification, characterization, and management of biochar from biomass waste materials. The book includes coverage on sources, impacts, and applications of biochar that could potentially be used as catalysts to enhance environmental remediation and resource recovery processes. Examples of applied research that demonstrate the relationship between wastewater, soil, contaminated environments, remediation, resource recovery, sustainability, and circular bioeconomy are also included.

The book bridges the gap between biochar applications in wastewater treatment, soil improvement, gas mitigation, and resource recovery.
