<p class="JSDLKatakunci"><strong>Abstra</strong><strong>ct</strong><strong>.</strong> The purpose of this paper is to synthesize all research results qualitatively to explore the potential of biochar as a remediation agent in swamps, including its mechanism, and effectiveness. The soil in swampland is characterized by the presence of pyrite (FeS<sub>2</sub>) which results in high acidity (soil pH &lt;3.5). The reduction process in swamps produces high amounts of ferrous iron (Fe<sup>2+</sup>) which is then released into the environment. The mechanism of iron (Fe) poisoning is indicated by the inhibition of nutrient uptake because the roots are covered with iron. This disturbes the root function as a nutrient absorber. Recent research shows that biochar could be used as an approach to reduce soil pollution in swamps through metal immobilization processes. This review paper uses a qualitative method with meta-aggregation approach based on the Francis-Baldesari method (2006). Principally, the soil remediation mechanism using biochar does not remove metals but accumulate them into hydroxide or carbonate deposits with the help of existing microorganisms. Provision of rice husk Biochar can increase the pH value reaching ≥5.0 and grain yield by 20% in intensively cultivated tidal swamps. Increasing the pH value of the soil will supports the formation of Fe hydroxide deposits which are accumulated on rice roots.</p><p class="JSDLKatakunci"> </p><p><strong>Abstrak. </strong>Tujuan penulisan paper ini adalah mensintesis seluruh hasil penelitian secara kualitatif untuk<strong> </strong>menggali potensi biochar sebagai bahan remediasi pada lahan rawa meliputi mekanisme, dan efektivitasnya. Tanah di lahan ini dicirikan oleh keberadaan pirit (FeS<sub>2</sub>) yang menghasilkan keasaman tinggi (pH tanah &lt;3,5). Proses reduksi di lahan rawa menghasilkan besi ferro (Fe<sup>2+</sup>) dalam jumlah tinggi dan dilepaskan ke lingkungan. Mekanisme keracunan besi (Fe) ditunjukkan dengan terhambatnya serapan hara karena perakaran diselimuti oleh besi sehingga fungsi akar sebagai penyerap unsur hara terganggu. Penelitian terbaru menunjukkan bahwa pemanfaatan biochar sebagai salah satu pendekatan untuk mengurangi pencemaran tanah di lahan rawa melalui proses immobilisasi logam. Paper review ini menggunakan metode kualitatif berdasarkan metode Francis-Baldesari (2006) dengan pendekatan metaagregasi (meta-aggregation). Mekanisme remediasi tanah menggunakan biochar prinsipnya tidak menghilangkan logam tetapi mengakumulasinya menjadi endapan hidroksida maupun karbonat dengan bantuan mikroorganisme yang ada. Pemberian Biochar sekam padi dapat meningkatkan nilai pH mencapai ≥5,0 dan hasil gabah sebesar 20% di lahan rawa pasang surut yang intensif dibudidayakan. Peningkatan nilai pH tanah mendukung pembentukan endapan hidroksida Fe yang diendapkan pada akar padi.</p>

NaV2O5 mesocrystals were successfully synthesized from an alkaline-stripped pentavalent vanadium solution through a novel hydrothermal hydrogen reduction process. The optimal conditions for the hydrogen partial pressure, reaction temperature, initial solution pH value, and reaction time for the pure-phase NaV2O5 synthesis were ascertained to be 4 MPa, 200 °C, 4.0, and 2 h, respectively. The synthesis time (only 2 h) was greatly shortened, by nine times, compared with the most time-saving (18 h) hydrothermal process at present. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed that the as-prepared powders demonstrated a typical layered orthorhombic structure of NaV2O5. The purity of the as-prepared NaV2O5 reached up to 99.98%. An electrochemical test showed that the as-prepared NaV2O5 has a potential application in sodium ion batteries. According to scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analyses, the as-prepared NaV2O5 powders were identified to have rod-like mesocrystals consisting of small rods which preferentially grow along the (010) direction. Furthermore, the phase transformation mechanism and crystal growth mechanism in NaV2O5 preparation were discussed systematically, based on which the synthesis mechanism of NaV2O5 was proposed as pentavalent vanadates pre-sedimentation, hydrogen reduction with dehydration, sodium ions insertion, and finally self-assembly oriented attachment. The synthesis process is characterized as time-saving and low-cost, and thus it may have great application prospects.

Abstract The interactions between discharge plasmas and an aqueous solutions can enable the production of reactive species and charge transfer at the plasma-liquid interface, forming the plasma electrochemical system (PES). The PES are promising for diverse applications, such as nanomaterials synthesis, due to the activation of the solution chemistry by the plasma. In this paper, we investigate the influence of the solution’s pH value on the formation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in a direct current (DC) PES. Dual argon DC plasmas are generated in an H-type electrochemical cell containing an aqueous solution of silver nitrate with pH values in the range of 1.99-10.71. By this design, the solution acts as a cathode at one end of the H-type cell, and as an anode at the other end. The results show that the AgNPs are formed at the anode except for the solution with the pH value of 1.99. However, at the cathode, the AgNPs only appear in the solution with the pH value of 10.71. We find that the solvated electrons and hydrogen peroxide produced by the plasma-liquid interactions are responsible for the Ag+ reduction at the solution anode and the solution cathode, respectively.
