Biochar prepared from pyrolysis of waste biomass is gaining widespread attention in environmental remediation due to its multifaceted benefits. This book explores these possible applications of biochar in water treatment and removal of pollutants from the contaminated sites. It also emphasizes the role of biochar engineering through different physical and chemical methods to enhance structural and physicochemical properties of biochar such as surface area, porosity and surface functional group. It also focuses on the diverse source of biomass that can be used for biochar production, different methodologies for biochar preparation and biochar engineering for improvement of its properties. Finally, it describes all the applications of biochar that can contribute to environmental remediation and sustainability. Given the contents, the book will be useful for students, researchers and professionals in the area of environmental chemistry and material science. 001481035 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed September 28, 2023). 001481035 650_0 $$aBiochar. 001481035 650_6 $$aBiocharbon. 001481035 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001481035 7001_ $$aKumar, Ashok$$c(Professor of microbial biotechnology) 001481035 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aNadda, Ashok Kumar$$tBiochar and Its Composites$$dSingapore : Springer,c2023$$z9789819952380 001481035 830_0 $$aMaterials horizons. 001481035 852__ $$bebk 001481035 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-99-5239-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001481035 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1481035$$pGLOBAL_SET 001481035 980__ $$aBIB 001481035 980__ $$aEBOOK 001481035 982__ $$aEbook 001481035 983__ $$aOnline 001481035 994__ $$a92$$bISE
