Biochar is characterised by a large specific surface area, porosity, and a large amount of functional groups. All of those features cause that biochar can be a potentially good material in the optimisation of the process of composting and final compost quality. The objective of this study was to compile the current knowledge on the possibility of biochar application in the process of composting and on the effect of biochar on compost properties and on the content of contaminants in compost. The paper presents the effect of biochar on compost maturity indices, composting temperature and moisture, and also on the content and bioavailability of nutrients and of organic and inorganic contaminants. In the paper note is also taken of the effect of biochar added to composted material on plants, microorganisms and soil invertebrates.
生物炭的特点是比表面积大、孔隙率大、官能团多。所有这些特性使得生物炭成为优化堆肥过程和最终堆肥质量的潜在良好材料。本研究的目的是总结生物炭在堆肥过程中的应用可能性以及生物炭对堆肥特性和堆肥中污染物含量的影响方面的现有知识。本文介绍了生物炭对堆肥成熟度指数、堆肥温度和水分的影响，以及对营养物质、有机和无机污染物含量和生物有效性的影响。本文还注意到添加到堆肥材料中的生物炭对植物、微生物和土壤无脊椎动物的影响。
