ACTIVATED CARBON USE IN GROWTH OF PLANT Maize and pine derived biochars, as well as a commercial grade activated carbon, were used as amendments. Plant growth characteristics, such as chlorophyll content and shoot to root biomass, improved with sorbent amendment to varying extents and contaminant uptake to shoots was consistently reduced in amended soils. By further defining the conditions in which sorbent amended soils successfully reduce contaminant bioavailability and improve plant growth, this work will inform field scale remediation efforts. |ACTIVATED CARBON USE IN GROWTH OF PLANT IN VADODARA| |ACTIVATED CARBON USE IN GROWTH OF PLANT IN CHENNAI| |ACTIVATED CARBON USE IN GROWTH OF PLANT IN TAMILNADU| |ACTIVATED CARBON USE IN GROWTH OF PLANT IN GUJARAT| |ACTIVATED CARBON USE IN GROWTH OF PLANT IN MUMMBAI| |ACTIVATED CARBON USE IN GROWTH OF PLANT IN KOKATA| |ACTIVATED CARBON USE IN GROWTH OF PLANT IN RAJESHSTHAN| |ACTIVATED CARBON USE IN GROWTH OF PLANT IN MADHYAPRADESH|
