I am happy to share that it is a nice and learning experience to get acquaintance with an emerging technology of waste utilization for valorization and carbon sequestration at the University of Greenwich, UK. Apart from my research on waste management, I have also been privileged to visit woodland and bird observatory to experience the restoration studies. The School of Science at the University of Greenwich is having an advanced state-of-the-science facilities with excellent laboratory and…

Biochar is a product of thermo-chemical pyrolysis of biomass, having tremendous potential to improve soil fertility and remediate heavy metal contamination from soil. After pyrolysis of biomass, the organic matter is broken into a highly stable form of carbon, which renders it to act as a slow release fertilizer and retain moisture and nutrients in soil. Addition of biochar from different organic feed stocks (e.g., wood biomass, coconut husk, poultry waste) into soil improves the…
