Biochar as a bioactive feed additive in pig diet
(Master thesis, 2021)Biochar is a porous, carbonaceous pyrogenic substance produced by pyrolysis of biomass at a temperature ranging from 350 ◦C to 1000 ◦C, whereby organic materials are decomposed in a lowto-no oxygen environment. Evidence ... -
Biochar effect on maize yield and soil characteristics in five conservation farming sites in Zambia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Biochar addition to agricultural soils can improve soil fertility, with the added bonus of climate change mitigation through carbon sequestration. Conservation farming (CF) is precision farming, often combining minimum ... -
Biochar for carbon neutral farming : a case study of greenhouse horticulture in Norway
(Master thesis, 2019)Norway is on the list over nations who directly contribute to a significant part of the European and global greenhouse gas-emissions and is a direct contributor to global warming and its related problems. As a result of ... -
Biochar for N2O mitigation and improved delivery and retention of mineral nitrogen in compost and soil
(PhD Thesis;2022:15, Doctoral thesis, 2022)Biochar is a promising technology for simultaneously storing carbon in soils, improving crop yields and reducing greenhouse gases. In the last 20 years, research efforts into biochar and its application to soils have been ... -

Biochar improves maize growth by alleviation of nutrient stress in a moderately acidic low-input Nepalese soil
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)We studied the role of biochar in improving soil fertility for maize production. The effects of biochar on the alleviation of three potential physical-chemical soil limitations for maize growth were investigated, i.e. water ... -
Biochar persistence, priming and microbial responses to pyrolysis temperature series
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Biochar and its properties can be significantly altered according to how it is produced, and this has ramifications towards how biochar behaves once added to soil. We produced biochars from corncob and miscanthus straw via ... -
Biochars from contaminated sewage sludge as sustainable PFAS-sorbents for water and soil clean-up
(Master thesis, 2022)Due to the considerable persistence, mobility, and toxicity of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), techniques for the remediation of soil and water contaminated with PFAS are urgently needed. The potential for using ... -
