BioChar: Applications for Bioremediation of Contaminated Systems

Front Cover
Riti Thapar Kapoor, Maulin P. Shah
Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG, Mar 7, 2022 - Science - 463 pages

This book explores the production and applications of biochar. This material is used to remove contaminants from industrial effluent and to reutilize waste sludge in the production of biofuel/bioenergy. The treatment of wastewater and reuse of waste sludge in value added products manufacturing and environmental clean-up is explored. This book provides a roadmap for future strategies for pollution abatement and sustainable development.
