Biochars are anthropogenic carbonaceous sorbent and their influences on the sorption of environmental contaminants need to be characterized. Here we evaluated the effect of Pinus radiata derived biochars on soil sorption and desorption of phenanthrene. Two biochars separately produced at 350 °C and 700 °C and three soils were tested. Biochar amendment generally enhanced the soil sorption of phenanthrene...
The availability of sorbed hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs) to benthic organisms is important for characterizing sediment toxicity. While many studies show a correlation between the rapid desorption HOC pool and bioavailability to benthic organisms, bioavailability of the slow or very slow desorption fraction is still poorly understood. In this study, Chironomus tentans were exposed to phenanthrene...
