Abstract
- Biochar produced from thermochemical processing biomass is being developed as an effective way to mitigate climate change. The stability of biochar means the potential capability of fixing biochar carbon in the soil environment. The method for biochar stability assessment is significant to its climate change mitigation potential. However, there is no standard method available to use, and the stability of biochar assessed by the diverse methods has a significant difference. Nevertheless, the comparative study on the diversified stability assessment methods is limited. In the present study, the biochars were pyrolyzed from soybean straw, wood sawdust, and Chlorella Vulgaris at temperatures ranging from 300 to 800 °C. Then, the evaluation methods, such as ultimate analysis, proximate analysis, the Edinburgh stability tool, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), solid state 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and thermogravimetric analysis, were compared to assess the stability of biochars. The stability indicators obtained by most methods, excluding aromatic C from NMR and C–C/C = C/ C–H from XPS, were closely related to the pyrolysis temperature (ANOVA analysis, p 0.36, p
