The understanding of parameters controlling mobility of trace contaminants is a key topic in a world where groundwater resources for water supply are strongly exploited and consequently greater exposed to contamination risks. In the context of wastewater reuse as water saving option for irrigation, distribution coefficients for the partitioning of lead between Cretan soil and wastewater derived irrigation...
Understanding the nutrient retention and release characteristics of biochar before its application to agricultural soils is crucial to maximize the benefits and minimize the damage that might be posed. In this study, batch sorption experiments were carried out to determine the ability of biochar produced from rice husk to adsorb or release three major nutrient ions: ammonium (NH4+), nitrate (NO3−),...
Potential supply shortages of phosphorus (P) rock reserves call for a more efficient use of P fertilizer and exploring new ways of recycling the nutrient within agro-ecosystems. Conditioning arable land with biochar might contribute to achieving both goals. We examined three putative mechanisms governing P availability in biochar amended soils. Potential direct P inputs from eight biochars differing...
