Biochar Amendment in Remediation of Heavy Metals in Paddy Soil: A Case Study in Nobewam, Ghana
Biochar is a stabilised, carbon-rich material created when biomass is heated to temperatures usually between 450 and 550 °C, under low-oxygen concentrations. This study evaluated the effectiveness of sawdust, cocoa pod ash and rice husk biochars in remediating metal-contaminated paddy soil in Nobewa...
