أهمية “البيوتشار” في تعزيز التربة والزراعة المستدامة نحن جميعًا نتشارك الهواء والماء ذاتهما، ونعيش بفضل طبقة رقيقة من التربة العلوية وقليل من الحياة الميكروبية تحت أقدامنا. هذه الحياة الميكروبية تلعب دورًا حيويًا في تطور النباتات والغذاء الذي نتناوله. في حوض الأمازون الأوسط بالبرازيل، قام العلماء بدراسة كيفية قيام المزارعين على مدار آلاف السنين بإنشاء تربة […]

Abstract The main aim of this study is to determine the physical and chemical properties of biochar synthesized from different materials (straw rice, sawdust, sugar cane, and tree leaves) at different pyrolysis temperatures (400, 600, and 800 °C). The physical and chemical properties such as moisture content, water holding capacity, bulk density, and porosity; and pH, […]

Biochar: The Backbone of Sustainable Agriculture and Enhanced Soil Health In the face of escalating environmental challenges and the urgent need for sustainable agriculture, biochar emerges as an innovative and effective solution for improving soil health and boosting agricultural productivity while promoting environmental sustainability. This article explores the nature of biochar, its benefits, and its […]

Summary The misuse and overuse of pesticides have led to severe pollution of agricultural soils, impacting both environmental and human health on a global scale. Biochar, recognized for its eco-friendly characteristics, has emerged as a potential solution for immobilizing pesticides within the soil, thus mitigating pollution. This review critically examines the dual nature of biochar’s […]

In the face of growing environmental concerns, the presence of pharmaceutical substances in aquatic environments has emerged as a significant challenge. These contaminants, inadequately filtered out by current wastewater treatment systems, pose substantial threats to both ecosystem health and human welfare. As they seep into water bodies, these pharmaceuticals can disrupt aquatic life’s normal functioning […]

Material flow and ecological network analysis of China’s coupled nitrogen and phosphorus flows shows trade-offs and synergies between food and energy systems. Nitrogen and phosphorus are essential nutrients for agricultural production. Their continuous supply is therefore vital for food production. In the industrial high-yielding agriculture, synthetic fertilizers are the most important sources of the essential […]

2023 was a rough year for climate tech. While it fared slightly better than other sectors, total venture and private equity investment in planet-saving technologies fell 40% last year, down to a five-year low. It wasn’t all doom and gloom, however. For one, the EU enacted the Green Deal Industrial Plan, which makes over €1trn […]
