Modified Biochars and Their Effects on Soil Quality: A Review

Biochar (BC) has attracted attention due to its impacts on soil quality by enhancing fertility, carbon storage and contaminants immobilization. BC also induces changes in microbial community structure enhances crop productivity long term scenarios compared many other organic amendments. However, information related the role of modified BCs altering is still scarce. can be using physical, chemical methods. Modified change functional groups, pore size, structure, surface area properties soil, which plays a key changing quality. The addition as amendment increased CEC (cation exchange capacity), EC (electron conductivity), pH, matter, hydraulic conductivity, porosity, infiltration rate, activities (enzymes community), nutrient profile gas properties, but it varies according pervading environmental conditions. This study provides basis for effective practical approaches modifying improving
