Effectively reducing the bioavailability of heavy metals in disturbed sediment with biochar: In-situ remediation

The effect of biochar, derived from Phyllostachys pubescens (PP), on the bioavailability and release fluxes of Cd, Cu, and Zn in disturbed sediments was investigated. The content of Cd, Cu, and Zn in overlying water and pore water sharply increased after sediment disturbance. When biochar dose excee...
