Biomass Lap Lambert Academic Publishing Biomass Waste Valorization and Environmental Applications Paperback

Biomaterial waste has significant potential for environmental protection through its conversion into value-added products such as activated carbon, biochar, compost, and biosorbents. These materials are effective in treating contaminated water by removing heavy metals, arsenic, fluoride, dyes, pharmaceuticals, and oil. In air pollution control, biomass-derived adsorbents help remove volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and harmful gases from industrial emissions. In soil remediation, biochar and compost improve soil quality while immobilizing toxic heavy metals, enhancing soil fertility and supporting sustainable agriculture. The use of biomaterial waste in environmental applications not only reduces pollution but also promotes resource recovery, waste valorization, and the principles of a circular economy, making it an important approach for sustainable environmental management.
