Biochar-mediated remediation of uranium-contaminated soils: evidence, mechanisms, and perspectives

Abstract Soil contamination by uranium presents a burgeoning global environmental concern, exerting detrimental effects on both agricultural production and soil health. Biochar, a carbonaceous material derived from biomass pyrolysis, exhibits considerable potential for remediating uranium-contaminat...
