Estrogens are considered as dangerous endocrine disruptors. Sludge and biosolids, which aresourced from the human waste and used in the form of as fertilizers on agricultural fields,contain estrogens. As a result of leaching, hormones may contaminate soil, ground water andsurface waters. This can lead to degradation of aquatic wildlife.Recent research has found that biochar has good potential in reducing pollution from organic andinorganic contaminants. However, there is a lack of knowledge with respect to the remediationpotential of biochar in removing steroid estrogens, such as 17β-estradiol and estrone, present insludge and biosolids.A lysimeter study was carried out to study the fate and transport of estrogen hormones in soil.Hardwood-d...
