Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) pose significant environmental and human hazards due to their resistance towards natural degradation. Anthropogenic activities have resulted in worldwide spreading of PFAS, and soil remediation of PFAS is challenging due to its persistent and mobile nature. Amendment with commercial activated carbon (AC) of fossil origin is one of the preferred immobilization strategies for contaminated soil. However, waste-based sorbents may represent a greener alternative to AC. Here, we review the status and potential for the use of waste-based materials as PFAS sorbents in soil remediation. Key properties in the search of candidate materials are discussed, followed by an overview of potential sorbents. The materials reviewed are bark, protein-rich waste, chitosan, amine-modified waste, compost, biosolids, biochar produced from waste-based substrates, and a selection of industrial waste, notably bottom- and fly ash, char and slag. Performance and sorption behavior of these materials are compared for long- and short-chain PFAS, and their applicability is further discussed. Besides great sorption capacity and affinity, promising amendments combine high abundance, low cost, a potential for modification and low risk. Biochar emerges as the most mature and promising candidate of the materials reviewed. Other waste-based materials also show great PFAS sorption capacities, but their performances in soil have not been properly assessed. Besides sorption studies in environmentally relevant matrices, upscaling and long-term studies are needed to further examine the potential use of waste-based sorbents in remediation of PFAS contaminated soil.

Thirty-seven turfgrass samples expressing dollar spot symptoms were collected in summer 2020 on golf courses in Sweden, Denmark, United Kingdom, Germany, Portugal, and Spain. The fungi were isolated at Norwegian Institute of Bioeconomy Research (NIBIO) Turfgrass Laboratory (Norway) and sent for molecular identification using sequencing of regions of ITS (internal transcribed regions of the ribosomal DNA) and calmodulin. Clarireedia homoeocarpa was identified in four turfgrass samples and Clarireedia jacksonii was identified in 11 turfgrass samples. From seven turfgrass samples, the isolated fungi were not Clarireedia spp., but Waitea circinata, Fusarium culmorum, and Fusarium oxysporum. This suggests dollar spot is not always accurately identified from foliar symptoms in the field.

In recent years, biochar loaded with urea has been proposed as a promising N-rich fertilizer with both high-N capacity and slow release. Understanding the interaction between urea and biochar at the molecular level is key to product design. Solid-state NMR (SSNMR) spectroscopy is a particularly powerful method to probe molecular composition and interactions within the bulk of materials. The objective of this work was to identify molecular structures and interactions when urea is loaded into and released from biochar. To do so, we carried out SSNMR investigations of biochar loaded with 13C and 15N isotopically enriched urea. Biochar-urea composites were prepared both with a saturated aqueous urea solution (BUs) and with molten urea (BUm). SSNMR analysis revealed that urea is predominantly in a paracrystalline form on the biochar surface or physically entrapped within biochar pores. In BUm, products of the thermal degradation of urea were also detected, mainly in the form of biuret. Water-immersion experiments showed that 78 and 64% of the urea contained in BUs and BUm is released, respectively, after 24 h, demonstrating substantial retention of urea. The residual urea is mainly physically confined in the biochar pores. In the case of BUm, urea thermal degradation species are also partially retained.
