• Synthesis and characterisation of laboratory-charred grass straw (Oryza sativa) and chestnut wood (Castanea sativa) as reference materials for black carbon quantification (2006, background): “The final formation temperature and gas composition during heating influence char properties (Brown et al., 2006).”
• Using biochar for remediation of soils contaminated with heavy metals and organic pollutants (2013, background): “(1998) noted that the presence of combustiondriven toxic organic compounds, such as polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), chlorinated hydrocarbons, and dioxins, is often suspected in biochar products, and their concentrations are dependent on carbonization temperature and feedstock source (Brown”
• Biochar properties: Transport, fate, and impact (2016, background): “It has been reported that high pressures and heating rates and long residence times lead to loss of surface area, due to biochar melting, plastic deformation, fusion, etc. (Brown et al., 2006; Cetin et al., 2004).”
• Production and characterization of slow pyrolysis biochar: influence of feedstock type and pyrolysis conditions (2013, result): “5, are similar to the values published by Brown et al. (2005), Keiluweit et al. (2010), Schimmelpfennig & Glaser (2012) and Sun et al. (2012).”
• Effect of biochar amendment on sorption and leaching of nitrate, ammonium, and phosphate in a sandy soil. (2012, result): “Positive correlation between N2-measured surface area and pyrolytic temperature was found for all tested biochars, which is consistent with the results of several previous biochar studies (Brown et al., 2006; Li et al., 2011; Mukherjee et al., 2011).”
