| Abstract | To address soil degradation and environmental sustainability, the utilization of biochar derived from algal and agricultural waste residues for sustainable soil enhancement offers a promising avenue. The synthesis of biochar using algae and agricultural waste residues provides dual benefits: it transforms waste into valuable products and enhances soil fertility and health. Biochar derived from these sources exhibits remarkable physical and chemical properties, such as high nutrient content, water retention capacity, high porosity, and large surface area. The application of biochar in soil mitigates greenhouse gas emissions, promotes sustainable soil management practices, and contributes to climate change mitigation. However, technological advancements and feedstock variability present challenges that require further exploration. Support from policy and technological innovation is essential to improve biochar production and its application in soil enhancement. This review discusses the potential of biochar synthesized from algae and agricultural waste residues in sustainable soil enhancement. It also highlights recent advances in this field and the need for further research to scale up these green technologies for large-scale applications, emphasizing the process through the lens of sustainability. The study explores innovative pathways to improve soil health, promote crop productivity, and contribute to sustainable agricultural practices. |
