This book provides useful information and applications of biochar produced from agricultural waste, for removal of contaminants from industrial effluent and reutilization of waste sludge in production of biofuel/bioenergy. It describes how designer or modified biochar or combined application (biochar + microbes) can be used applied successfully for reuse of wastewater and contaminated soil for eco-restoration, environment protection and sustainable development. It also deals with the unique features, advantages, and disadvantages of techniques for biochar production and analyses. It underlines a roadmap in development of future strategy for pollution abatement and sustainable development. Features: Provides exhaustive coverage of Biochar and its production and properties. Highlights use of biochar in pollution control and environment protection. Covers use of agricultural waste /waste biomass for dye decolorization and degradation. Explores synergistic approaches for contaminants removal for better insights into basic and advanced biotechnological applications. Describes how biochar treatment can be successfully applied for reuse of wastewater and contaminated soil eco-restoration and environment protection. This book aims at Graduate students and researchers in Chemical / Biochemical Engineering, Biotechnology, Environmental Sciences/Engineering and Agriculture engineering--
