Abstract
Biochar are added in the agronomic territory as soil development or amendment agent. Intensification of agriculture for higher crop production is protruded to degrade the soil status. Biochar can amend the damaged soil because it comprises plant nutrients and organic carbon compounds in their ash. There is not a one size equips all biochar improvement. Therefore, a substitute paradigm suggested whereby designed biochar to have particular chemical characteristics to fit various application. Designer biochar has been inspected employing croplands soil, so this key prime can be practiced to electronic and environmental sectors. We present in this study the designer biochars applications to weathered sand dunes to increase the growth of plant and accelerate the stabilization of dunes and also optimization of their exceptional conductive characteristics for electrochemical capacitors as well as batteries. In the last portion of this review, we exhaustively discussed the electrical characteristics of charcoal as well as emphasized the certain history of charcoal.
