Co-composted biochar derived from rice straw and sugarcane bagasse improved soil properties, carbon balance, and zucchini growth in a sandy soil: A trial for enhancing the health of low fertile arid soils
(2022)Sustainable management of low fertile arid soils using carbon-rich organic amendments such as biochar and compost is of great concern from both agricultural and environmental points of view. The impact of pyrolysis, ... -
Effects of sheep bone biochar on soil quality, maize growth, and fractionation and phytoavailability of Cd and Zn in a mining-contaminated soil
(2021)Biochar prepared from various feedstock materials has been utilized in recent years as a potential stabilizing agent for heavy metals in smelter-contaminated soils. However, the effectiveness of animal bone-derived biochar ... -
Efficient and Stable Carbon-coated Nickel Foam Cathodes for the Electro-Fenton Process
(2015)Carbon-coated nickel foam (C@NF) electrodes are prepared via a simple and effective method, hydrothermal-carbonization cycle coating process, characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive ... -
Herbal plants- and rice straw-derived biochars reduced metal mobilization in fishpond sediments and improved their potential as fertilizers
(2022)Fishpond sediments are rich in organic carbon and nutrients; thus, they can be used as potential fertilizers and soil conditioners. However, sediments can be contaminated with toxic elements (TEs), which have to be immobilized ... -
Pesticide effects on nitrogen cycle related microbial functions and community composition
(2022)The extensive application of pesticides in agriculture raises concerns about their potential negative impact on soil microorganisms, being the key drivers of nutrient cycling. Most studies have investigated the effect of ... -
Role of microbial diversity for sustainable pyrite oxidation control in acid and metalliferous drainage prevention
(2020)Acid and metalliferous drainage (AMD) remains a challenging issue for the mining sector. AMD management strategies have attempted to shift from treatment of acid leachates post-generation to more sustainable at-source ... -
Silver Toxicity Thresholds for Multiple Soil Microbial Biomarkers
(2018)Material flow analysis shows that soil is a key repository for silver (Ag) from (nano)silver-functionalized consumer products, but the potential effects of Ag toxicity, via Ag+ release, on soil microbial communities and ... -
Soil structure of a clay loam as affected by long-term tillage and residue management
(2020)Soil structure is of great importance for a number of other related properties and agricultural management affects it. Under semiarid climatic conditions, soil water for crop growth is particularly important and water ...
