Lignocellulosic biomass-based engineered biochar composites: A facile strategy for abatement of emerging pollutants and utilization in industrial applications

There has been considerable growing interest in the production and application of biochar derived from various sources, especially from the lignocellulosic biomass (crop residues), sewage sludge, plastic wastes, etc. Biochar have emerged as potential candidates as catalysts in different chemical and bioprocesses, and for soil remediation and amelioration, agrochemical removal, carbon sequestration, removal of organic and inorganic wastes,...
