Biochar effectively immobilizes bacteria for antibiotic degradation in soil and water, enhancing remediation by improving bacteria-pollutant interactions and restoring microbial activity. Production conditions, like pyrolysis temperature, impact biochar's effectiveness in sequestering bacteria and adsorbing antibiotics.
