Project Overview
This project aims to produce magnetic nanobiochar (MNB) from rice husk using green synthesis methods, which are safe and non-hazardous to the environment. Rice husk will be used as a catalyst/substrate, and the MNBs will be characterized and instrumental data generated. A pot culture experiment will be conducted to apply MNBs to the rice rhizosphere, and the nutrient status of both control and experimental pots will be assessed to ensure their role as a nanocarbon fertilizer.
