商品描述
This book gives readers a fundamental understanding of the topic of using biochar to mitigate environmental disturbance, water scarcity, soil degradation, and food security in a sustainable way, as well as an overview of new researchable concerns in the field. Biochar, also referred to as "black carbon," encourages plant growth and soil fertility, reduces the need for fertilizer, and lowers soil loss due to erosion. Biochar is a solid material rich in carbon that is created by heating a variety of organic feedstocks in the absence or with little oxygen. Due to its highly porous nature, biochar serves as a sink for atmospheric CO2 in soil and holds onto water and nutrients in surface soil. In addition to providing numerous environmental benefits, biochar can also enhance soil quality and crop output. By transforming agricultural waste into a potent soil enhancer that stores carbon and improves soil fertility, it is possible to increase food security, stop deforestation, and lessen the need for fertilizer.
In order to give comprehensive information and analysis on biochar production technology and its consequences in sustainable agriculture and environment management, the authors set out to consolidate information from several sources into a single volume. Toward scientists, decision-makers, and students working toward global sustainability, this book serves as an essential resource and a representation of fundamental and applied knowledge in the field of biochar production and applications.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書使讀者對使用生物炭來減輕環境擾動、水資源短缺、土壤退化和食品安全的可持續方法有基本的理解,並概述了該領域的新研究問題。生物炭,也被稱為「黑碳」,能促進植物生長和土壤肥力,減少對肥料的需求,並降低因侵蝕造成的土壤流失。生物炭是一種富含碳的固體材料,通過在缺氧或低氧環境中加熱各種有機原料而製成。由於其高度多孔的特性,生物炭在土壤中作為大氣二氧化碳的儲存庫,並能保持表層土壤中的水分和養分。除了提供眾多環境效益外,生物炭還能改善土壤質量和作物產量。通過將農業廢棄物轉化為一種強效的土壤增強劑,儲存碳並改善土壤肥力,可以提高食品安全、阻止森林砍伐,並減少對肥料的需求。
為了提供有關生物炭生產技術及其在可持續農業和環境管理中影響的全面信息和分析,作者們著手將來自多個來源的信息整合成一本書。這本書對於致力於全球可持續發展的科學家、決策者和學生來說,是一個重要的資源,並代表了生物炭生產和應用領域的基本和應用知識。
