Since the first studies with Terra Preta de Índio in Brazilian Amazon, where the high fertility was associated with the carbon present in the form of coal, the use of carbonized material in agriculture, called biochar (BC), is now promising. An important waste of charcoal production are coal fines (particles smaller than 10 mm), which can represent up to 15% of the coal produced. In Braz…
Heavy metals occur naturally in soils or can be increased due to human activities, mainly those associated with mining. Due to the high toxicity and accumulation in the food chain is of great importance to determine the behavior and fate of these elements in contaminated soils. Therefore, such information can help to minimize the ecotoxicological risk. With this proposal we aim to evalua…
Biochar (BC) is one of the materials produced by burning biomass under conditions of minimum oxygen, through the process called pyrolysis. The application of BC in soils is mainly used aiming at carbon sequestration, as well as to improve soil chemical, physical and biological properties. Due to its retention properties biochar has been studied for immobilization of inorganic contaminants…
