Abstract

Biochar is the solid residue that is recovered after the thermal cracking of biomasses in an oxygen-free atmosphere. Biochar has been used for many years as a soil amendment and in general soil applications. Nonetheless, biochar is far more than a mere soil amendment. In this review, we report all the non-soil applications of biochar including environmental remediation, energy storage, composites, and catalyst production. We provide a general overview of the recent uses of biochar in material science, thus presenting this cheap and waste-derived material as a high value-added and carbonaceous source.

  • Non-soil applications of biochar have been proven to exhibit much potential to mitigate climate change.

    “Apart from its traditional application as a soil amendment to improve soil fertility and immobilize contaminants, non-soil applications of biochar have also emerged in recent years, which have been  proven to exhibit much potential to mitigate climate change (Bartoli et al. 2020; Bolan et al. 2022).”

    From Role of biochar toward carbon neutrality (2023) · cites this paper as Bartoli et al. 2020

    Section 3.1, Environmental Remediation Applications (page unavailable), identifies non-soil uses of biochar that could reduce CO2 emissions and reports promising CO2 adsorption. It does not establish that non-soil applications broadly have been proven to mitigate climate change; the emissions benefit is framed as a possibility. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
