Biochar is a charcoal produced from the biomass pyrolysis process that presents a highly porous and functionalized surface. In the present work an array of carbon paste electrodes (CPE) made of different forms of carbon (graphite, carbon nanotubes and activated biochar) was evaluated in the development of an electronic tongue for discrimination and stripping voltammetric determination of catechol (CAT), 4-ethylcatechol (4-EC) and 4-ethylguaiacol (4-EG) phenolic compounds.

14 p, 2.2 MB Physicochemical Characterization of Cherry Pits-Derived Biochar / Frišták, Vladimír (Trnava University in Trnava. Department of Chemistry) ; Bošanská, Diana (Trnava University in Trnava. Department of Chemistry) ; Pipíška, Martin (Trnava University in Trnava. Department of Chemistry) ; Ďuriška, Libor (Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava. Institute of Materials Science) ; Bell, Stephen Mackenzie (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Institut de Ciència i Tecnologia Ambientals) ; Soja, Gerhard (University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences Vienna. Institute for Chemical and Energy Engineering)
Although the suitability of some biochars for contaminants' sorption separation has been established, not all potential feedstocks have been explored and characterized. Here, we physicochemically characterized cherry pit biochar (CPB) pyrolyzed from cherry pit biomass (CP) at 500 °C, and we assessed their As and Hg sorption efficiencies in aqueous solutions in comparison to activated carbon (AC).

Key Laboratory of Humid Sub-tropical Eco-geographical Process)
Aerobic methanotrophs in paddies serve as methane (CH₄) filters and thereby reduce CH₄ emissions. Amending soil with waste products can mitigate CH₄ emissions in crops, but little is known about the impacts of amendments with steel slag and biochar on the populations and activities of aerobic methanotrophs in rice cropland.

Biochar is a high carbon material resulting from biomass pyrolysis that, when applied to croplands, can increase soil carbon and soil water retention. Both effects are of critical importance in semi-arid regions, where carbon decline and desertification are the main drivers of soil degradation. [...]
