Bioremediation of Emerging Contaminants from Soil using Biochar: Theory and Practices covers the pressing issue of contaminants of emerging concern (CEC) in the soil ecosystem, emphasizing the threat they pose to environmental health. With a focus on pollutants like microplastic compounds, phenols, pharmaceuticals, heavy metals, and more, the book explores the use of biochar as a cost-effective and efficient solution for soil remediation. It highlights the importance of surface modified nanobiochar and other innovative approaches in tackling these pollutants effectively. The TOC includes sections on the occurrence and fates of contaminants in soil, agroecological consequences, recent advancements in biochar production, and more.

Chapters cover topics such as biochar-assisted removal of micro/nano plastics, decontamination of personal care products, and phyto-remediation of contaminants. Future prospects and challenges in biochar-led remediation are also discussed, making it a comprehensive resource for those interested in environmental cleanup technologies. This edited book will be valuable for undergraduates, postgraduates, researchers, and professors exploring biochar applications in bioremediation. It offers insights into high-quality biochar production and its role in remediating soil and aqueous ecosystems, particularly in addressing emerging contaminants and heavy metals.
