“…Improved photosynthesis in our study is associated with leaf N and a relatively constant PNUE. This is in contrast to previous studies which found a decrease in levels of photosynthetic machinery or its components (leaf N, Rubisco, and/or chlorophyll) and an increase in the efficiency of photosynthetic machinery (Akhtar et al 2014;Alburquerque et al 2014;Kammann et al 2011;Tatarkova et al 2013). Such disparity can be explained by the fact that nutrient was not the limiting factor of photosynthesis and growth (Akhtar et al 2014;Kammann et al 2011), or low-nutrient biochar was used (Alburquerque et al 2013;Thomas et al 2013) in previous studies.…”

Biochar has significant potential to improve crop performance. This study examined the effect of biochar application on the photosynthesis and yield of peanut crop grown on two soil types. The commercial peanut cultivar Middleton was grown on red ferrosol and redoxi-hydrosol (Queensland, Australia) amended with a peanut shell biochar gradient (0, 0.375, 0.750, 1.50, 3.00 and 6.00%, w/w, equivalent up to 85 t ha(-1)) in a glasshouse pot experiment. Biomass and pod yield, photosynthesis-[CO2] response parameters, leaf characteristics and soil properties (carbon, nitrogen (N) and nutrients) were quantified. Biochar significantly improved peanut biomass and pod yield up to 2- and 3-folds respectively in red ferrosol and redoxi-hydrosol. A modest (but significant) biochar-induced improvement of the maximum electron transport rate and saturating photosynthetic rate was observed for red ferrosol. This response was correlated to increased leaf N and accompanied with improved soil available N and biological N fixation. Biochar application also improved the availability of other soil nutrients, which appeared critical in improving peanut performance, especially on infertile redoxi-hydrosol. Our study suggests that application of peanut shell derived biochar has strong potential to improve peanut yield on red ferrosol and redoxi-hydrosol. Biochar soil amendment can affect leaf N status and photosynthesis, but the effect varied with soil type.

“…In addition, specific adsorption sites on the biochar surface, such as the aromatic-rich core structure and oxidised surface groups with variable charge and hydrophobicity, can lead to more selective interactions with herbicides. Biochar-mediated increases in adsorption to soil have been observed for many herbicides, for example diuron (Yang et al 2006), bromoxyl and ametryne (Sheng et al 2005), simazine (Jones et al 2011) and MCPA (Tatarková et al 2013). …”

Biochar amendment can alter soil properties, for instance, the ability to adsorb and degrade different chemicals. However, ageing of the biochar, due to processes occurring in the soil over time, can influence such biochar-mediated effects. This study examined how biochar affected adsorption and degradation of two herbicides, glyphosate (N-(phosphonomethyl)-glycine) and diuron (3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea) in soil and how these effects were modulated by ageing of the biochar. One sandy and one clayey soil that had been freshly amended with a wood-based biochar (0, 1, 10, 20 and 30% w/w) were studied. An ageing experiment, in which the soil-biochar mixtures were aged for 3.5 months in the laboratory, was also performed. Adsorption and degradation were studied in these soil and soil-biochar mixtures, and compared to results from a soil historically enriched with charcoal. Biochar amendment increased the pH in both soils and increased the water-holding capacity of the sandy soil. Adsorption of diuron was enhanced by biochar amendment in both soils, while glyphosate adsorption was decreased in the sandy soil. Ageing of soil-biochar mixtures decreased adsorption of both herbicides in comparison with freshly biochar-amended soil. Herbicide degradation rates were not consistently affected by biochar amendment or ageing in any of the soils. However, glyphosate half-lives correlated with the Freundlich Kf values in the clayey soil, indicating that degradation was limited by availability there.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1007/s11270-017-3392-7) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…The prolonged herbicides underdosing was introduced as the responsible phenomenon for the weed resistance that happens because of the reduced herbicidal efficacy. Many studies have been conducted on evaluation of bio-efficacy of pesticides in soils in the presence of biochars (Graber et al 2011;Yu et al 2011;Wang et al 2012;Tatarková et al 2013). Nag et al (2011) indicated that the addition of wheat straw biochar in the soil can make atrazine and trifluralin herbicides inactive, resulting in increased ryegrass seed germination and its aboveground biomass.…”

Biochar is a stabilized, carbon-rich by-product derived from pyrolysis of biomass. Recently, biochar has received extensive attentions because of its multi-functionality for agricultural and environmental applications. Biochar can contribute to sequestration of atmosphere carbon, improvement of soils quality, and mitigation of environmental contaminations. The capability of biochar for specific application is determined by its properties which are predominantly controlled by source material and pyrolysis route variables. The biochar sorption potential is a function of its surface area, pores volume, ash contents, and functional groups. The impacts of each production factors on these characteristics of biochar need to be well-understood to design efficient biochars for pesticides removal. The effects of biomass type on biochar sorptive properties are determined by relative amounts of its lingo-cellulosic compounds, minerals content, particles size, and structure. The highest treatment temperature is the most effective pyrolysis factor in the determination of biochar sorption behavior. The expansion of micro-porosity and surface area and also increase of biochar organic carbon content and hydrophobicity mostly happen by pyrolysis peak temperature rise. These changes make biochar suitable for immobilization of organic contaminants. Heating rate, gas pressure, and reaction retention time after the pyrolysis temperatures are sequentially important pyrolysis variables effective on biochar sorptive properties. This review compiles the available knowledge about the impacts of production variables on biochars sorptive properties and discusses the aging process as the main factor in post-pyrolysis alterations of biochars sorption capacity. The drawbacks of biochar application in the environment are summarized as well in the last section.
