Different bamboo sources and species producing biochar

S No	Bamboo species/source	Temperature	Biochar yield	Application	Reference
1	Dendrocalamus giganteus	300 °C	80%	The presence of high porosity and carbon concentration can be utilized as activated carbon after being physically or chemically activated	Laidy E. et al. 2014 [56]
2	Dendrocalamus latiflorus Munro	300 °C to 500 °C	48%	It can be used as activated carbon after being physically or chemically activated because of its high porosity and carbon concentration	Ye et al. 2015 [64]
3	Phyllostachys virdiglaucesons	–––––-	–––––––-	It can be used to clean up contaminated wastewater or industrial effluents	Viglaová et al. 2018 [65]
4	Dry bamboo stalks	400 °C to 600 °C	32%	As an adsorbent to replace industrially produced activated char	Sahoo et al. 2021 [57]
