Long-term Cd remediation mechanisms and potential risks in soil with biochar application under dry-wet cycling at different soil moisture levels by Shuang Huang, Zhuowen Meng, Jingwei Wu, Lei Xin, Qin Zhao

“…The results showed that Cd adsorbed by biochar in soils during long-term ageing first underwent rapid adsorption (over 0–5 years of simulated ageing), then equilibrium stabilization (over 5–20 years of simulated ageing), and finally slight re-released (over 20–30 years of simulated ageing). Compared with the total Cd adsorbed by biochar in the 20th year of simulated ageing, Cd adsorption by biochar accounted for 85.28 %, 14.72 %, and −3.22 % during 0–5, 5–20, and 20–30 years of simulated ageing, respectively, in the soil at 100 % θs. …”
