Description
Hashem Mohammadzadeh Shirazi and co-authors pair sorghum plants with sludge-made biochar to clean oily soil, in work dated 2026. Oil sludge poisons farm soil, and char made from waste can help heal it. In a sixty-day greenhouse test, the team crossed sludge levels with char levels in a full grid. Soil chemistry, plant stress, and breakdown of oily ring compounds were all tracked.
Char at the top dose cut soil salt by near a third and fired up soil germ work. With sorghum in place, oily rings broke down more than half faster than parts alone would give. Plant damage marks fell steeply, and growth came back.
