Steroidal sex hormones, also known as estrogens, such as 17β-estradiol (E2) and its primary metabolite, estrone (E1), are being released in significant amount by animals in their urine and feces which generally ends up in manure and is typically spread on agricultural land. These hormones are important subject to study because of their potential toxic impact on soil, stream and groundwater quality. Because of their development effects in reptiles and amphibians, these hormones are labelled as Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs). These compounds are able to produce endocrine disruption in living organisms even at nanogram-per-liter levels. Various studies have highlighted biochar’s potential in adsorbing such hormones, given its structural...
