Biochar is a carbon-rich product obtained from the thermochemical conversion of biomass. Utilizing biochar essential for enhancing economic viability and maintaining ecology effectively. This work reviews techniques producing various lignocellulosic biomass sources. Pyrolysis technology converting into has emerged as frontier research domain pollutants removal. The effects feedstock parameters, production techniques, reaction conditions (temperature, heating rate, etc.), activation, functional group modification are compared on biochar's physical chemical properties. review also focused environmental applications in several domains, such agriculture wastewater treatment. Considering extensive availability feedstock, excellent physical/chemical surface properties, inexpensive cost, remarkable potential removing water efficiently. Studying evolution properties by in-situ or post-modification great significance improving utilization value valuable resource, yet its application necessitates additional structure, well development to modify those factors.
