Currently, heavy metal pollution, mining, and farming have caused many serious impacts on soils. Looking for sustainable and effective methods to mitigate soil pollution is significant. Biochar as a carbon-rich solid is generated from organic residues, and the use of biochar has been considered as an intense subject of investigation for soil remediation, and is probably going to keep on being for a long time. Moreover, the application of biochar derived from biowaste sources is a promising strategy for sustainable waste management. In this book chapter, the impacts of biochar on the soil are evaluated in terms of biological, chemical and physical properties, and environmental risks. Studies on the relationship between biochar and bioeconomy were reviewed. Further research on the biochar development has been proposed as well as current challenges.
