Adsorption of Lead (Pb) in Water Using Biochar & Biochar-Alginate Composite Beads
(2023-08-29)The current study investigates whether biochar and biochar-alginate composite (BAC), spiked with lead (Pb2+), has the potential to be released into soil. The study assesses the sorption capacity and kinetics of Pb2+ between ... -
Building with Biomaterials
(2023-04-14)Concrete buildings account for 80% of construction and generate 50% of global waste. Cement, which makes up 13% of concrete, is responsible for 6% of all anthropogenic emissions. To reduce a building’s carbon footprint, ... -
Evaluation of Biochar On Reducing Nitrogen Leaching From a Typical Soil in Nova Scotia
(2016-10-18)Biochar has been recently used as a soil amendment on reducing the nitrogen (N) leaching from agricultural soils to the surface and ground waters. A laboratory study using column leaching tests to determine the effectiveness ...
