Biochar Application in Soil to Immobilize Heavy Metals: Fundamentals and Case Studies covers biochar’s application to soil heavy metal immobilization. The book covers biochar’s effect on soil micro-and macro-properties, assessment of heavy metal stability in biochar-treated soil, and long-term stability of heavy metals in biochar-treated soil. A notable feature of this book includes its extensive use of case studies. Biochar Application in Soil to Immobilize Heavy Metals contains two case study chapters, with one focusing on small-scale field trials and the other focusing on medium to large-scale industrial applications of biochar to immobilize soil heavy metals. In addition, the flow of the whole book follows “mechanisms-to-applications-to-case studies, allowing readers to translate the fundamentals to practical applications. Biochar Application in Soil to Immobilize Heavy Metals provides soil and environmental scientists with the tools they need to build the links between the micro-level surface chemistry and the macro-level engineering performance. Covers the fundamentals and the influence of pyrolysis temperature and feedstock on the fundaments, which is very important for the applications Covers molecular interaction between biochar and heavy metals in soil Each chapter contains subsections cover mechanisms, applications, and case studies allowing readers to quickly grasp the contents
