Biochar-based removal of emerging contaminants from recycled water used for agricultural irrigation

The webinar “Biochar-based removal of emerging contaminants from recycled water used for agricultural irrigation” presents innovative biochar-based approaches to treat recycled water that is potentially hampered by the presence of contaminants, that could harm human health. Biochar-based adsorption has been widely assessed as a means of removing pollutants prior to use. Dr. Daniel Ashworth from the USDA-ARS U.S.- Salinity Laboratory speaks about his research findings assessing biochar potential in mitigating the spread of pollutants in recycled water for agricultural production.
