| Abstract | This study investigated the characteristics of nanoscale bamboo charcoal (NBC), and made a comparison with microscale bamboo charcoal (MBC) on how they impact on the sorption abilities of different soils. The two charcoals contained similar elemental contents (e.g., high C, low H and low N) and various functional groups on their surfaces (e.g., aromatic structure, carboxyl, and hydroxyl). However, NBC had a larger total pore volume than that of MBC and was more likely to generate multi-layer sorption of phenanthrene. Controlled by van der Waals forces and electrostatic forces, NBC formed meso-and macropores (intra-particle porosity) and a more intricate pore structure. The performance of NBC in aqueous and soil-water systems was conspicuous and impressing. In aqueous system, by virtue of its larger pore volume, surface area and nonprotonated aromatic carbon, the K (sorption coefficient) of NBC reached up to 1.24×10 , almost 10 times higher than that of MBC. In soil-water systems, although it could aggregate and react with compounds in soil, the performance of NBC was not weakened by the complicated soil properties, and was still more capable of phenanthrene sorption than MBC, even at an extremely low addition rate 0.2% in soils. Additionally, in comparison with some other common biochars, NBC still showed a promising capacity for phenanthrene sorption in two systems. This finding increases our knowledge of NBC for the remediation of organic pollutants in soil and indicates that the addition rate of charcoals in soils could be reduced by lessening the particle size. Therefore, NBC provides a new possibility for soil pollutant remediation and deserves further research. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
