A large number of shooting ranges is present in Egypt without paying attention to controlling the environmental pollution. The main objective of this research was to investigate the integrated effect of applying biochar (BC) derived from sugar cane wastes for soil fertility improvement and lead (Pb) stabilization. To achieve this goal, sugar cane wastes were collected, and used for producing the BC. A small-scale BC production unit was designed by using double metal barrels; thereafter, sugar cane wastes were placed and burned inside the BC producing unit. The produced BC was used to restore the biological function of a polluted shooting range soil by immobilizing Pb and improving the soil fertility. A surface sandy loam soil was collected from a shooting range site in the Giza Governorate-Egypt and was incubated for 365 days with different application levels (0.0, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 10.0, 20.0 and 30.0% w/w) of BC. The results showed that the addition of BC significantly increased the soil water holding capacity, available nutrients (N and P) and cation exchange capacity as well as stimulated the microbial growth (bacteria and fungi) in the soil. Moreover, the addition of BC led to a significant decrease in the available Pb fraction by 97.0%, as compared to the untreated soil. The phytotoxicity test revealed that the addition of BC significantly increased maize biomass (shoots and roots), especially with applications of 3% and 5% treatments. However, no plant growth occurred on the untreated soil. Furthermore, Pb uptake by maize plants significantly decreased with increasing the level of applied BC. Our findings provide evidence that BC application decreased Pb toxicity by immobilizing Pb and improving soil quality. Therefore, BC can be effectively used for sustainable development and environmental protection.","author":[{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Person","name":"Prof. Dr. Mahdy H .

an emerging environmental issue for nature conservation. A large number of shooting ranges is present in Egypt without paying attention to controlling the environmental pollution. The main objective of this research was to investigate the integrated effect of applying biochar (BC) derived from sugar cane wastes for soil fertility improvement and lead (Pb) stabilization. To achieve this goal, sugar cane wastes were collected, and used for producing the BC. A small-scale BC production unit was designed by using double metal barrels; thereafter, sugar cane wastes were placed and burned inside the BC producing unit. The produced BC was used to restore the biological function of a polluted shooting range soil by immobilizing Pb and improving the soil fertility. A surface sandy loam soil was collected from a shooting range site in the Giza Governorate-Egypt and was incubated for 365 days with different application levels (0.0, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 10.0, 20.0 and 30.0% w/w) of BC. The results showed that the addition of BC significantly increased the soil water holding capacity, available nutrients (N and P) and cation exchange capacity as well as stimulated the microbial growth (bacteria and fungi) in the soil. Moreover, the addition of BC led to a significant decrease in the available Pb fraction by 97.0%, as compared to the untreated soil. The phytotoxicity test revealed that the addition of BC significantly increased maize biomass (shoots and roots), especially with applications of 3% and 5% treatments. However, no plant growth occurred on the untreated soil. Furthermore, Pb uptake by maize plants significantly decreased with increasing the level of applied BC. Our findings provide evidence that BC application decreased Pb toxicity by immobilizing Pb and improving soil quality. Therefore, BC can be effectively used for sustainable development and environmental protection."},"document_type":"paper","pre_hit_view_count_baseline":null,"quality":"high","language":"en","title":"BIOCHAR: A SOLUTION FOR SOIL LEAD (Pb) POLLUTION","broadcastable":true,"draft":false,"has_indexable_attachment":true,"indexable":true}}["work"]; window.loswp.workCoauthors = [8186974]; window.loswp.locale = "en"; window.loswp.countryCode = "SG"; window.loswp.cwvAbTestBucket = ""; window.loswp.designVariant = "ds_vanilla"; window.loswp.fullPageMobileSutdModalVariant = "control"; window.loswp.useOptimizedScribd4genScript = false; window.loswp.appleClientId = 'edu.academia.applesignon';</script><script defer="" src="https://accounts.google.com/gsi/client"></script><div class="ds-loswp-container"><div class="ds-work-card--grid-container"><div class="ds-work-card--container js-loswp-work-card"><div class="ds-work-card--cover"><div class="ds-work-cover--wrapper"><div class="ds-work-cover--container"><button class="ds-work-cover--clickable js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"swp-splash-paper-cover","attachmentId":55516937,"attachmentType":"pdf"}"><img alt="First page of “BIOCHAR: A SOLUTION FOR SOIL LEAD (Pb) POLLUTION”" class="ds-work-cover--cover-thumbnail" src="https://0.academia-photos.com/attachment_thumbnails/55516937/mini_magick20190114-27856-qqe4vi.png?1547487963" /><img alt="PDF Icon" class="ds-work-cover--file-icon" src="//a.academia-assets.com/assets/single_work_splash/adobe.icon-574afd46eb6b03a77a153a647fb47e30546f9215c0ee6a25df597a779717f9ef.svg" /><div class="ds-work-cover--hover-container"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 20px" translate="no">download</span><p>Download Free PDF</p></div><div class="ds-work-cover--ribbon-container">Download Free PDF</div><div class="ds-work-cover--ribbon-triangle"></div></button></div></div></div><div class="ds-work-card--work-information"><h1 class="ds-work-card--work-title">BIOCHAR: A SOLUTION FOR SOIL LEAD (Pb) POLLUTION</h1><div class="ds-work-card--work-authors ds-work-card--detail"><a class="ds-work-card--author js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="8186974" href="https://aun.academia.edu/DrMahdyHamed"><img alt="Profile image of Prof. Dr. Mahdy H .

Various methods of controlling soil pollution are currently being implemented by combining several methods. One of which is coating the biochar with humic acid to increase the effectiveness of nutrient uptake by plants. This study aimed to elucidate the effect of humic acid-coated biochar (HCB) on reducing Pb and Cu in the soil to improve plant growth. Treatments tested were combinations of two factors. The first factor was the dose of HCB, namely D0 = control (without HCB), D1 = 15 t HCB ha-1, D2 = 30 t HCB ha-1, and D3 = 45 t HCB ha-1. The second factor was the type of plants, namely spinach (P1), water spinach (P2) and mustard green (P3). Twelve treatments were arranged in a randomised block design with three replications. The parameters observed were plant height, plant leaf area, plant stem diameter, and plant fresh weight.

Herein, a series of novel biochar materials (BPBCs) were prepared by combined ball milling and phosphorus (P)-loading. The optimized BPBC were fabricated in the basis of Cd and Pb adsorption capacities of the biochar, with pyrolysis at 700°C, ball milling for 12 h and the addition of 5% red P (BPBC700). Ball milling could effectively grind pristine biochar into submicron particles and nanoscale P particles could be uniformly loaded on BPBC700. Moreover, the oxidative conversion of red P into phosphorus oxides, phosphoric acid and (hydro)phosphates was promoted due to reactions with the carbonates, alkaline minerals and O-containing functional groups of biochar. These reactions also decreased the biochar and soil pH to nearly neutral by acid-base neutralization. Pot experiments showed that BPBC700 had better effects than the pristine or ball-milled biochar in improving soil properties (e.g., cation exchange capacity and organic carbon), increasing the concentrations of soil nutrients (e.g., N and P), promoting alkaline phosphatase, catalase and urease activities, decreasing soil mobility and plant accumulation of Cd and Pb, and alleviating Cd and Pb stress on maize plants. Thus, BPBC is a promising and ecofriendly amendment to enhance its adsorption ability on Cd and Pb, soil quality and plant productivity in contaminated soil.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Preparation of ball-milled phosphorus-loaded biochar and its highly effective remediation for Cd-and Pb-contaminated alkaline soil","attachmentId":94436713,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/91037052/Preparation_of_ball_milled_phosphorus_loaded_biochar_and_its_highly_effective_remediation_for_Cd_and_Pb_contaminated_alkaline_soil","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/91037052/Preparation_of_ball_milled_phosphorus_loaded_biochar_and_its_highly_effective_remediation_for_Cd_and_Pb_contaminated_alkaline_soil"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="8" data-entity-id="29158948" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/29158948/Speciation_of_Cd_and_Pb_in_the_soil_after_the_biochar_application">Speciation of Cd and Pb in the soil after the biochar application</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="9099216" href="https://urkrakow.academia.edu/MonikaMierzwaHersztek">Monika Mierzwa-Hersztek</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">The focus on speciation analytics, which allows to identify the potential risks to the environment arising from the presence or accumulation of heavy metals in soil, has been on the increase in the recent years. Total or, at least, partial detoxifica-tion of heavy metal ions, to variable extents, can be achieved by introducing biochar into the soil. The key factor and potential of biochar to reduce the content of heavy metals in soil depends on the specific properties of biochar, such as presence of functional surface groups, specific surface area, and porosity. The aim of the research was to evaluate the effect of poultry litter, as well as poultry litter-derived biochar produced at a temperature of 300 o C on Cd and Pb contents in mobile and organic matter-bound forms in soil. A micro-plot field experiment was established on Haplic Cambisol with five treatments: control soil without fertilisation; soil + NPK; soil + NPK + poultry litter at a dose of 5 t D.M. ha-1 ; soil + NPK+ biochar at a dose of 2.25 t D.M. ha-1 , and soil + NPK + biochar at a dose of 5 t D.M. ha-1. The soil samples were taken from each plot, from the layers: 0–10 cm, 10–20 cm and 20–30 cm. The following parameters were determined: pH – by potentiometric method, electrical conductivity – by conductomet-ric titration, the contents of total forms of nitrogen and carbon were determined using CNS analyser. The contents of total forms of selected trace elements were determined after ashing the soil organic matter in chamber furnace (at 450°C for 8 hours) and mineralising its residues in a mixture of concentrated nitric and perchloric acids. Selected forms of analysed trace elements (the sum of mobile, exchangeable, MnOx-and organic matter-bound fractions) were determined by the sequential extraction procedure designed by Zeien and Brümmer. The Cd and Pb contents in the resulting solutions and extracts were determined by ICP-OES using the Perkin Elmer Optima 7300 DV instrument. The sum of exchangeable alkaline cations (EAC) and hydrolytic acidity (Hh) were determined by Kappen method. It was noted that the total lead content, regardless of the soil layer (0–10 cm, 10–20 cm and 20–30 cm), ranged between 19.8 mg and 28.9 mg kg-1 D.M. of soil, and the total cadmium content, between 0.61 mg and 1.16 mg kg-1 D.M. of soil. The average proportion of the sum of the most mobile forms of cadmium in the total Cd content in 0– 10 cm, 10–20 cm and 20–30 cm soil layers was: 82%, 76% and 63% respectively, and of lead, 22%, 20% and 24%. The proportion of lead fraction bound with organic matter in the total content was comparable in different soil layers and ranged between 37% and 41%. No Cd fraction bound to organic matter was determined in the tests.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Speciation of Cd and Pb in the soil after the biochar application","attachmentId":49603280,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/29158948/Speciation_of_Cd_and_Pb_in_the_soil_after_the_biochar_application","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/29158948/Speciation_of_Cd_and_Pb_in_the_soil_after_the_biochar_application"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="9" data-entity-id="105255738" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/105255738/The_Use_of_biochar_in_the_Remediation_of_Pb_Cd_and_Cu_Contaminated_Soils_The_Impact_of_biochar_Feedstock_and_Preparation_Conditions_on_Its_Remediation_Capacity">The Use of biochar in the Remediation of Pb, Cd, and Cu-Contaminated Soils.

During the last decades, several methods have been developed aiming at its remediation, including the use of biochar as a soil amendment. In the present work, we have assessed the reduction of Pb, Cd, and Cu soil concentrations as a function of the mixing ratio of biochar added to soil, as well as the source of biochar employed. Furthermore, we have investigated the effects of biochar addition relating to the chemical forms of heavy metals (HMs) related to their bioavailability and mobility. The concentrations of HMs were determined by the BCR (European Community Bureau of Reference) sequential extraction procedure before and after biochar addition to the soils. Five types of biochar were used, obtained as by-products of sugarcane bagasse (Β), bamboo (ΒΒ), rice straw (RSB), garden waste (GB), and paulownia (PB) treatment, respectively.
