The added value of biochar when applied along with fertilizers, beyond that of the fertilizers
themselves, has not been summarized. Focusing on direct comparisons between biochar …

The interaction between biochar and soil changes nitrogen (N) dynamics in different
ecosystems. Although multiple studies have reported influences of biochar on soil inorganic …

Stabilizing the global climate within safe bounds will require greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions to reach net zero within a few decades. Achieving this is expected to require …

Biochar refers to the high-carbon, black fine-grained product of biomass pyrolysis.
Independent studies repeatedly confirmed that its incorporation into arable land is a reliable …

Agriculture and land use change has significantly increased atmospheric emissions of the
non-CO2 green-house gases (GHG) nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4). Since human …

Abstract The European Commission has recently revised the EU legislation on fertilisers,
expanding its scope to secondary-raw-material-based fertilising products, and resulting in …

The growth of biomass is considered the most efficient method currently available to extract
carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. However, biomass carbon is easily degraded by …

Biochar-based compound fertilizers (BCF) and amendments have proven to enhance crop
yields and modify soil properties (pH, nutrients, organic matter, structure etc.) and are now in …

Soil carbon (SC) is important for food security, ecosystem functioning, and environmental
health, especially in light of global climate change. The physico-chemical character of …

Slow release of nitrate by charred organic matter used as a soil amendment (ie biochar) was
recently suggested as potential mechanism of nutrient delivery to plants which may explain …
